Another NHLer comes to Britain?

[Atko]

Seems Scott Nichol who plays for Chicago blackhawks could soon be playing for London Racers.

Racers interested in NHLer?

Shame he can't be here for Friday so the boys could make yet another NHLer look no more than average!

Keep 'em coming, we'll keep showing them up ;D

[heja]

LOL

but who do london get rid off?

as i'm sure they are full on imports??

[DS]

Just looked at their roster and don't they have 9 foreign players (Not sure how many are WP players though)

[heja]

they are full on imports and WP players i think

but i have been told that they might of already released a player and he guested for slough the other day.

[DS]

Would you like to name the players that are imports.

I thought they had signed the guy Halloon on a temp basis

[heja]

what ever they are full up on both Import and WP players so they have to let someone go. others all teams would just sign the nessary brits and then keep on signing WP players

Nice to see that yet again you can't answer a question.

According to THF,

Halloon will be staying as a Racer until the 1 November, As Nicholl doesn't arrive until the first.

They've gassed the Czech or Slovak guy who was on trial.

Imports are Sylvain Daigle, Vickers, Goulett, Pope, Robinson, Maxwell, Cornish, Mcintyre, Moria and Tremably.

As for showing up NHLers, that is easy. They are human with two arms and two legs but unless they beat the opposition indivually twice before rounding the netminder twice and scoring, they are being shown up. Like Roman .... NHLer ...... one of the most average imports I've ever seen. If you watched the NHLers in France, they were a class above the rest with their movement and skill. However, whether you are Jagr or Dan Scott, you can't do much when you are pinned against the boards.

My post was slightly tounge in cheek.

But I would agree with TVRDON29, the Milan 1st line had NHLers with I believe a 1000 games between them.

Okay Panthers were pinned back pretty much all the way through that match, but netherless we still kept them down to 2 goals.

In addition we didnt bite and scratch, Milan were probably guilty of more of the dirty stuff than ourselves, so the NHLrs not being head and shoulders above us was not the result of them being roughed out of the game.

To be honest the Milan first line had the skill movement etc and u can see how they racked up the 1000 games, Adams especially impressed me as i expected him too, but we shut them down brilliantly , frustrated them etc.

So any player to come to the UK i would n expect panthers to be worried based on the perofrmance i witnessed in France, the real quality NHl ers are heading to sweden, russia , czech republic etc

Spot on Pidge, as we're only seeing those players on the periphery of the NHL

[KIGOIUK]

I was only lucky enough to see two of the games in Amiens due to work , the Milan 1st line NHL players did play a very fast game and completely demolished the Llubljana team , put a few past their Net minder , I WAS IMPRESSED , until I was informed the Net minder was the back up goalie

It was not until the first choice netminder was put back on late in the third that showed just how good a NHL player was in that tournament when a good netminder is between the pipe's.

[heja]

Nice to see that yet again you can't answer a question

And WHY does it matter if i can't name every single player in this league??

i knew london had to get rid of one of there players before the new guy arrived and that why i asked who was going.

[girdeaux]

Here's the link from the Elite league's own site.

I'm genuinely pleased that the Racers have been able to come through what was a very tough season last year. The sport in this country needs a competitive team in the capital.
