www.panthers.co.uk/home/moore-and-strachan-named-panthers-assistant-coachesCertainly a big step in the right direction. Kevin Moore looks to be a good addition with previous experience in the role. Also am ex goalie and goalie coach. Nothing against Strachan but I'd rather we just freshened it all up. Probably still find ourselves a step behind the likes of Belfast and Cardiff but for Panthers I do think it's a solid step forward.

I agree with you on Strachan but I’d say the main reason for bringing Strachan back is his experience in the EIHL and Nottingham and unless you could get someone like Clarke back then Strachan is most likely our only option |

Would really like to understand the predictable reaction towards Strachan. Can anyone say why he’s such a bad coach or is it just because he’s an “old face”?

Would really like to understand the predictable reaction towards Strachan. Can anyone say why he’s such a bad coach or is it just because he’s an “old face”? Until last season Strachan hadn't coached in years, so to call him a coach of relevance in any form at present in is an overstatement to put it mildly, For one he won't be up to date with the latest coaching plays and methods. Add to that although listed as assistant coach in the last season of Neilsons 1st stint he didn't take part in training as he was only there on game nights. So in reality he was only a bench coach. This was because he wanted to make his business his priority (which is his right) but thats not the sign of a fully committed coach is it? Is he fully committed this time? The same Rick Strachan who said last season he wouldn't have returned to coaching with anyone but Neilson so whats changed his mind? Then there's his habit of breaking dressing room confidences. The only advantage with him is he knows the league, but even then the league has changed a lot in recent years. His signing is very much the easy option, the predictable option not the type of signing an ambitious club, serious about winning things would make, its why he's never ended up at Belfast, Squerlers or Devils |

Pleased with the addition of Moore, good that he's not new to the job and seems keen. Terrific array of facial hair judging by his Google results.
Rick's Rick, we all like Rick, we just didn't want it to only be Rick doing the job, and it isn't.
So good work Panthers, and sorted it nice and early too.
Edit - ok, we don't all like Rick.

Moore does actually look a pretty well good signing, even I am quite impressed with that one. Strachan though,whilst I like the guy and I get the “knows the league” thing I don’t see what he is going to bring that with a little input Pacha couldn’t do himself. There are that many new coaches and players around the league,to say Strach’s “knows the league” is just spinning a yarn. I’d say Strach’s as an old hand is there just to keep a crafty eye on the new boys for NB. |

Agree bringing back RS was once again the east option.. this knowing the league business don't work for me anymore. Anyone would think this league is unique and unlike any other on the planet the way people go on!

Pacha’s kept his promise and has formed a team round Paredes. Kevin Moore seems to be a very positive character, I’m pleased we’ve got him on board, I suspect he’ll bring a lot to the off ice team and the locker room. Great news

Moore sounds as good of a signing as any player to be honest. Big step in the right direction and keeping Strachan allows that ‘good cop / bad cop’ dynamic that Corey would refer to.
Moore may bring some good contacts too, being a GK himself will help the next Nettie and by his age & record looks a coach who will want to climb the hockey ladder

Really happy with this. I was particularly disappointed last year that GG didn’t get an assistant. I know he wasn’t well liked anyway but I felt really sorry for him, he had no one to vent to, no link to the players, and no one independent to bounce ideas off. I feel like this gives JP the chance to do that, and gives him tools to have a real good crack at this job. I hope that it is matched in the calibre of players still to be signed! Here’s hoping 😂

For me it's pretty much the old face thing. When we've gone from 1 disaster to another of recent times i'd just like to see a fresh start mean a fresh start. He comes across as a likeable bloke but he's just been involved in the establishment for to long. His appointment is likely more a case of, let's add Rick so it looks like we are taking it seriously. Rather than let's go and get 2 specific coaches to do specific jobs. |

Know nothing about more so time will tell.
Know lots about Strachan and sorry to say he really is yesterday's man.
Overall I am not impressed.

Apologies - "more" obviously should read "Moore".

I suppose it gives them somebody to wheel out for an interview with Xynomix or Jeronimo’s when the other two don’t fancy facing up after the latest loss. 🤣🤣 At least Rick’s used to that job. |
