Exactly the sort of team we should be looking at to play over here. Let's hope we don't just use it as a one off event and we push for high calibre teams to come every pre season.

Excited for this, they finished bottom of their league but will still be a very good team, but one who we should be able to test. I see they will be playing Cardiff as well, hopefully we can both arrange some more matches against some of the best teams from around Europe

Put the article on their website through a translator and it appears they actually tried to arrange a friendly with Braehead, specifically refers to Gareth Chalmers, but couldn't arrange it so got them in contact with Neil Black and Todd Kelman.

Disappointed with that RE Clan
They tried to get us a European team last season but whoever it was pulled out. Just hope we don't have a boring pre season like last season.

Should be good, never know maybe most of Panthers players will have arrived by then..
Anyone know please when the CHL draw is, & any likely dates when the matches will be played.

Last year the draw was in May, so I'd expect similar this year. First round is late August according to our PR when we qualified.

Group stage draw is May 17, in Cologne, I believe.

We will wait and see how serious Panthers are about these games - if they are serious all the imports will be here and the squad will have been together since the beginning of August - or will the club penny pinch and put out a team short staffed made up of a few imports, the Brits and a few guys taken from junior teams. It's time for Panthers to start taking things seriously on the ice again instead of just trying to make another quick ££
