You think because you haven’t heard it, it’s not real - the ego on you 😂😂 No ego at all? Care to explain where you heard this? No I don’t care to explain where I heard it. That’s between me and the person who told me who, and I quote “it’s not reliable but it’s doing the rounds”

I’ve heard the same noise but it’s been vetted as unreliable so far.

New nettie tonight! Wonder who... I think we’ll announce a spare import and they’ll also clear up the Brit back up situation as well. No idea who though😂 Luca Sheldon and Lewis Bloor rotation Brit back ups with them starting at Lions with a second import that’ll slot in when we’re short an import or when we rest Debeau

But Hammonds stats at DEL 2 and EIHL outstrip anyone else available. Huge signing. Indeed. If true, he's a major signing. If 👀

There’s a part of me that thinks the clubs leak them to generate a buzz. Johnston came out of no where really but you’re right, everyone else was rumoured. A bit half and half on that front… Dubeau, Summers, Sorensen and Caruso definitely came out of nowhere as well as Johnston. Can’t fully remember but I’m sure Ferrara was left-field at the time. Brady, Gagnon, Hunt etc have been rumoured / maybe leaked… but then so have other names that haven’t materialised (yet). That depends…some of those names were out before the release just not all over social media as much.

A hell of a lot of positives so far. We probably wont really no until players start arriving and we start to here a few bits leaking out about how they are finding it. Will they now be happier with housing arrangents? Will they still spend to much time drinking free beer in local pubs? Clearly Pacha and GG have done a great job of delivering a positive message to new recruits. That appears to be clear. If I have 1 slight critisism it's that we appear a lot more leaky. Far to many of our signings have been widely rumoured for weeks. Then on announcement days we have people confidently stating before hand who it actually ends up being. There’s a part of me that thinks the clubs leak them to generate a buzz. Johnston came out of no where really but you’re right, everyone else was rumoured.

My Dad emailed Omar today about reigniting some of his old sponser deals…and he said Omar was on the phone for 30 minutes to him talking about what he’s trying to achieve. That culture of openess to anyone is huge

I’m holding onto the thought that we’ve got an absolute star to come into the 1st forward line. With the signing of Johnston we seem really spoilt for choice as to who plays centre, we could play Welsh on the LW of Johnston and Ferrara as their playmaker. I’m hoping we might look something like: Puffer - Brady - IMPORT Welsh - Johnston - Ferrara IMPORT - Sorenson - IMPORT Kelsall - Myers - Hopkins Caruso - IMPORT Brassard - Summers Gagnon - Moore Hazeldine (2-way) Dubeau Brit Spare Import Goalie to rotate When you put that team down on paper and look at the top 3 lines…any of those 9 could play on any line and do a job.

Hunt and Gagnon running riot 😻😻 Our third line with some of the players we’ve signed will be better than our top line of last season

Gagnon and Moore as our third line D IMO. I’m already keen for it! Can play the game, can score (that coast to coast goal against Cardiff anyone) and they don’t come much tougher

Combination of things for me. Black has realized he has to spend more money & Doucet was plain terrible at getting player value. Lack of experience gets mentioned a lot when people talk about Doucet but I think Dupont is showing that you can put together a good team on paper without a ton of experience Helps when you have Kelman who’s done it for 10 Years though

STUD for me. Will be up there with the best in the league Proper signing there. Now that IS what you call a “stud” Dman. Told you to have some faith. There’s a plan. This team will be no joke. He trumps any D signing so far in any team.

That’s a title winning pack of Centres imo Sorenson Welsh Brady Myers Watch Brady’s highlights and how many he snaps off from the top of the circle on a face off. Put Myers out to win the draw and let him rip one in. The depth is already scary good

A second 25 plus goal scorer from the EIHL last season…it’s almost like there’s a plan

Will be a stud in this league. Not sure where you get “stud” from,he looks very decent but basically an ECHL/DEL2 normal signing that could turn out average or very good. Stud though,not from those stats or CV. Being compared to Chris Murray too elsewhere,can’t see that either from what we can see. Murray played well over 100 AHL games before coming to Nottingham and Summers only 9 on loan. A wait and see job. That’s because I’ve done my research Iggy and don’t just look at stats mate.

Looks like a quality signing. Just want to know why he didn’t play at all last season Injured last season and that’s the reason we got him to be Frank. Far too good for this league. Very similar to the Chris Murray signing about 8/9 years ago
