Dairon, who served as Assistant Captain for the Rush in 2006, currently works as a firefighter in his hometown of Burnaby, BC. The 6 ft, 235 lb. left-hander won 113 of 233 faceoffs last season.
It's been an active off-season for the Rush, who've now made three trades in the past month. Those trades have brought in players including Dan Stroup, Chris Gill and AJ Shannon.
