As already posted on new signings, couldn't be any happier than with these signings, never dared hope we'd get both of them back with us, thank you, thank you, take your time with the rest of the signings Corey I can survive a few more weeks with the joy of knowing our Brits are all signed up!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Fabulous, I never doubted Danny would come back to be honest but Matty is that extra bonus. Welcome home boys.

Most people expected Danny to sign, Matt as well is fantastic! Huge signings.

Best news I've had all day... hell, all ruddy week!
Not only is Danny a top D-man, but he's also vital on the leadership front... and on that score, we've now kept the entire leadership team that turned things around in the latter half of last season - captain, coach and assistant coach. The importance of that cannot be understated.
Like others, I was somewhat nervous as to whether Matt Myers would re-sign for us or go to ply his trade overseas again (I wasn't too worried that he'd sign for another British team)... but it's great news that he's back. That guarantees some serious grinding along the boards again, and his open-ice play has just got so much better since his N.American experience.
Very, very good news. The heart and soul of the team is now complete... netminding, defence and forwards. Now to see what can be done on the imports front...

Well chuffed! Welcome back guys - big target ahead for 2011/12! With the reduction in imports quota, would be good to get another quality Brit on board ... or am I just being too greedy now?

Unfortunately 2 year contracts mean diddly squat in this league and sport.

Never doubted it, said weeks ago.
Never the less, great, great signings, League winning signings with the import limit. Myers is the best Brit in the league, Danny is there or there abouts for Brit D men. Very happy! Lets just hope they are still signed at the start of the season.

Unfortunately 2 year contracts mean diddly squat in this league and sport. Maybe they mean nothing to imports but they'll mean something to Danny. He's made it clear that he wants to be here and become on of the longest serving captains at Panthers - I don't think he's the type of guy to back out on any contract he signs

Unfortunately 2 year contracts mean diddly squat in this league and sport. Any contract in the EIHL means didly squat when there is a two week notice period for either player or club. Two years offered to Danny shows commitment both to and from the player.

Excellent. Just hope they didn't take too big a slice of the wage budget and that neither of them get a better offer elsewhere and decide to head off to another league or something.
The next focus should be some solid D men IMO.
