The European leagues , Austria, Denmark etc are a good pool to scout players from who Id expect command a similar salary. Makes sense

OK – taking a bit of a punt here, but on the basis that 3 of our latest 4 signings (Lizon; Wiikman & Dimmen) all have the same agent – 37 Hockey, it’s not beyond the realms of possibility that some of our new import forwards will come via the same route. So, who do we have on offer in their client list who aren’t apparently contracted for 2015/16 yet? JUDD BLACKWATER - www.eliteprospects.com/player.php?player=13932Centre, with a 1.00 PPG Average in the CHL & 0.86 PPG in the ECHL. Some Euro experience with Olympia Ljubljana – a former teammate of Bryan Schmidt. ANDY BOHMBACH - www.eliteprospects.com/player.php?player=38106Left Wing, with experience in AHL; ECHL DEL2 and Austrian Leagues. 1.11 PPG Average in DEL2 & 1.07 PPG in ECHL DAVID BRINE - www.eliteprospects.com/player.php?player=14084Centre, with extensive AHL ; European & Asian experience. According to Elite Prospects - A hard working forward, Brine is a two-way center. An asset on the penalty kill, he also posesses decent skills on offence. Could be a ready-made replacement for Benny? NICK DINEEN - www.eliteprospects.com/player.php?player=16694Centre, with good European experience with KooKoo; Lillehammer & Sonderjyske. Went to College in the US, so could be a candidate for one of the remaining Loughborough University places? CHRIS FRANCIS - www.eliteprospects.com/player.php?player=31074Centre, with limited AHL, but extensive ECHL experience. Personally, my money would be on Dineen and Bohmbach - any thoughts? So, one of my 'predictions' turned out to be true - nobody more surprised than me! However, it does confirm that 37 Hockey are our preferred Agents, so who is left on their books from my previous list? Just DAVID BRINE by the look of it, although other forwards have been added to their client list: KYLE GREENTREE - www.eliteprospects.com/player.php?player=11408LW with NHL; extensive AHL & DEL experience VINNY SCARSELLA - www.eliteprospects.com/player.php?player=34036F with primarily ECHL experience - only 5'7" & 179 lb. I would say yes to Brine & Greentree, but not sure at all about Scarsella! Think Greentree was rumoured to have signed or about to sign in Austria .

I think one of our last 2 signings will be Ling just because I don't think he wants to end his carrier yet but it is getting quite late in the offseason for him to get picked up by another club

Don't we have two further MBA slots up for grabs. I thought we had 4 and schmidt and dimmen are two of them. If that's the case then you would hope that the last two signings are indeed going to be top notch.

I think Graham flopped because he didn't have the service and seemed to be lacking confidence in quite a few games, there were moments when he showed up but much like Lawrence it wasn't nearly enough to, if we'd have had Higgins for a whole season and Graham and Lawrence playing to their potential they would have caused issues. I'm all for long coming back he's the kind of guy who can produce something from nothing. Highly doubt he'd be a flop and if Krog comes in then we've got a very dangerous top line

Some rumours knocking about on twitter today.
Manchester Storm have set up with a huge budget of circa £16k per week.
Sheffield Steelers budget is circa £13k per week with most being spent on Brits and £1200 a week on Roy.

Steve MacIntyre to Braehead. He's started following Clan, Finnerty and various Clan fans on Twitter.
Very tough player, no doubt an enforcer. Fought a few of the tough guys currently in the league too. Not a point scoring player, no more than 5 points in a season since 01-02.

And no doubt will be watching a lot of hockey from the bench, penalty box or stands. He's very tough and from a few videos I've seen loses his head.

Cardiff quite bluntly dismissed the rumour on Twitter, MacIntyre has just started following Caps' Emmerson on Twitter... There's the next, doubtful rumour

Would be a smart move for the Caps.
Couple of genuine heavies. Beat everyone up who comes to the rink and actually spend something, anything on marketing. Crowds would rocket.
