Another ex-Brampton Beast. Who said Corey wasn’t a lazy recruiter? 😉 |

I did notice the usual Beast connection. Sure I've read his EP bio already, did someone link him in rumours? ITK points to them if so. (Edit - It was ashfieldpanther, 10 ITK points* to you.) Anyway, welcome to Nottingham. * - ITK Points have no monetary value. Or any other sort of value. |

Another ex-Brampton Beast. Who said Corey wasn’t a lazy recruiter? 😉 You can almost see Corey’s train of thought. Damn, I said a month ago we were looking at three players and would probably bring in two. Mmm what am I going to do? I know, Brownie, Gagz and Billingsley get in my office now. Any ideas who we can get with a Brampton connection that isn’t David Ling? |

Looks like a potential Panthers signing. Has played with Ling, Gagnon and Billingsley in the past and already in Europe. Sounds a bit soft though. And they say us 'non-professionals' don't know what we're talking about! |

Does smell of lazy recruitment but got to admit the former Beast players who we see all seem to be decent players imo.
Hopefully in for this weekend, looks like he could do a job with his PPG rate in the east coast and the A.

As long as he can find the net I’m happy. Welcome Luke!

Surprised we’ve signed anybody. Moran described us at full strength on the Cardiff highlights.

Given this guys pedigree, was it worth the month plus long wait? is he carrying too much pressure i.e. to turn the panthers season around?

But if he can pick a pass he might jut bring out some of the quality in other players who have been under achiving. Wait and see signing. But glad someone has come in. |

It might be a idea using him as a set up man for derlago. Try and get his points up a bit

According to Almtuna's press releases, he and David Vallorani (also ex-Brampton) were supposed to have a starring role. They were the only two imports and it was hoped they'd add some experience and offensive punch to a young team. Almtuna had been keeping an eye on Pither for a while before signing him and thought his strength would be as a playmaker. Between them, Pither and Vallorani had amassed 138 points for Brampton in 2016/7 (Pither GP 49, 19+33=52, 38 PIM, +1; Vallorani GP 82, 33+53=86, 30 PIM, +4). Vallorani played 23 games for Almtuna (3+8=11) before leaving at his own request on 5 Dec; he and his family had found it hard to adapt to life in Sweden and he went back to Brampton. This left Pither as the only import. Almtuna announced his release on 16 Jan, saying that he'd had a very good pre-season but had found it harder to make an impact in the league (GP 31, 7+5=12). Apparently he'd integrated well with the group, was very professional and put the team first but simly hadn't performed as well as the club had hoped. They replaced him with a relatively inexperienced 23-year-old Swede, Henrik Marklund, who'd played 32 games in the same division this year for AIK (2+1=3). Almtuna are currently a reasonably comfortable 5th in the 14-team Swedish second tier. So make of that what you will!

A lot is to be expected from Luke, let’s hope he can make a big impact, if he’s here, this weekend! It will hopefully give everyone a boost as well!
If you’re reading this Luke, welcome to Nottingham, we look forward to seeing what you can bring!

Bloody hell 😳😳😳😳...... He’s 54 ! In almost 30 years watching the Panthers, Dallman was my favourite! He smoked like a chimney but not did he know where the net was! Mark Kolesar was my 2nd favourite while we are on the subject.. then the rest |

Ah so now I know the type of players you like Pidge.....
Players that I call ghosts, and of this type he is my favourite.
