Ex team mate of Geoff Waugh & Andy Sertich. Another dual national whos played for croatia. Neilson would very likely have known about him given who hes played with. Was signed at end of last week but obviously only announced today... I suggested him the other week and got shot down for him looking 'average' but he is now a missed opportunity now a rival has signed him... Panthers will never be able to win whatever they do with some fans.

They cant all light up the points chart, you need some 2 way guys.

I wouldn't say you were shot down either, you yourself said he wasn't what we need on the rumours thread. Looks a decent player though.

I said he wasn't what we think we needed but thought he'd be a good signing for us and people were saying he still wasn't good enough. No one has said them words but the general impression I got from Sevcik's post was he'd rather have seen us sign him.

I can't speak for Sevcik, but I think you might be seeing something that isn't there. At the time you posted the rumour, I'm guessing we were still just looking for our Kolnik replacement? You can see why a centre, even a decent one, didn't appear to be a good fit.

Alas no my post was just stating that given Waugh & Sertich would be familiar with him Neilson would certainly have also known he (Brine) was available if he was interested in him. Would I have taken him over Nikiforuk? Definitely not, but id take him over Macmillan, brown or Lawrence... Even then there are far more players of his ability or better out there. Maybe we tried to sign him who knows. Mind you if Brine was Lawrences mate he'd have been a nailed on signing cert and been signed months ago.....

For info, I moved it from the signings thread, because the signings thread is for signings only

I would have killed to have Vandermeer with us, that would have been the perfect piece to finish the jigsaw

At 35 and with over 900pts in the old CHL to his name, Sebastian Thinel at Fife could really do some damage here!

Thinel was a good player when we saw him in Rouen in the Continental cup about ten years ago. Don't worry though.....we've got Midland Filtration and Xynomix back on board,now there's proper WOW for ya !!!!!

I reckon Gary held on to that piece of news as he new what an impact it would have when he dropped the news! Ah well, at least I will sleep better tonight, been stressing for weeks over this.

I honestly could see Thinnel performing to the standards of Ling in the Championship season but signing for a team with 12 players, no Brits and no Goalies.. He'll be gone by Christmas and either returning to France or going home to play in the LNAH.

I have thought ever since i saw him in rouen that he would be good in the UK. Or was it his brother I saw and thought he was good !

I think Carter for us played about 22ish

He looks good, but like PantherB says it seems a bit odd in Fife, no Brits at all, still a long way short of a full roster? Have they got issues?

Always seems to have 20 odd players on the roster. Their problem is none of the Brits are much good,they would be better spending more money on their imports like they seem to be doing this season and cutting down on the amount of Brits.

Fair enough, why no announcement though?

Davies will probably end up there until his ECHL camp starts (and afterwards assuming he doesn't get a roster spot). Talk of McCluskey signing for them as well, but no idea if it's true. Netminder is rumoured to be Shane Owen.
Not sure why they've not announced any Brits yet, I guess they do things differently up there. I'd expect many of the usual Brits back there next season
