Underwhelming and disappointing signing imo... Has his good moments but think he needs a change of scenery as he has just gone further and further downhill last couple of seasons as he is way too comfortable here and gets too much ice time.

I got excited when panthers tweeted that there was signing news but this just upsets me.

Mmmm,the only bit of the announcement i liked was the line that says "we have had a good talk about next season".
Oh good.....that means he's had a good kick up the backside !

Glad to have him back. Not a great season point wise, but offers plenty more.

Glad it's not just me who thinks he's shot his bolt.

He's a party boy who's more interested in hitting the bars after the game than hitting the twine in play

Hopefully he's had the biggest kick up the ar5e that CN has ever delivered.
Can't say the signing excites me. However RL has the tools, its the attitude and application that needs a huge boost.
Give him a chance but he needs to show way, way more than last season.

One bad season doesn't make him a bad player. People easily forget he's popped in some big goals for us and been on some of the best lines we've had under Corey.
He's also had 2 20+ goal seasons for us.
I'm willing to let him at least prove last season was a blip.

I'm assuming this means that Cardiff's announcement tomorrow is the return of Myers, so this is us getting in there first. If we've lost Myers, and potentially Clarke too if the retirement/EPL rumours are true, then we need Lacho if we're going to play 4 lines.
Very talented player anyway - which just makes it more frustrating.

I can't add much to what has already been said about him in this and other threads, I find him a little frustrating and admit to finding him lazy at certain points but then at the opposite end of the scale he is quick and skilled, uses he speed well when he gets chance and I'll not forget the goal he scored against the Giants, I think, this season were he took a shot, dragged the rebound out of the goalies reach and popped it over the top of him, that was a great bit of play, here is to more of that this coming season.
Overall I'm happy he is back, hope he hasn't changed my mind by Christmas.
I understand my view of him is limited to this season whereas many people have said he isnt as good as he was, I try to judge on what I have seen rather than what I have heard.

If Myers has somehow slipped through our grasp back to Cardiff then we are idiots of the highest order. He was comfortably our best Brit last season.
I'll be furious. Next door's cat will be in real trouble.

Also perhaps he has been living on the goal against Hamburg Freezers for some time. I just hope Corey gets right in his ear. A bit lightweight on the boards - but yes he has speed.

Just looked on 16/17 roster and Farmer is on it, when did he resign? He signed a multi-year deal last close season With all these multi year deals that most of our players have signed (And provided that no 2 week notices are given) it certainly appears that we don't have to worry about re-signings for the season after this one.

Had a good WC for GB, underwhelmed again last season.
Also was supposed to have had a kick up the backside last season...didn't seem to do much.

Last season wasn't a one off though was it. He hasn't been good since Francis left. And you shouldn't have to rely on another player to show your worth. Flashes of brillaince from time to time but those momments have lessened as time has passed. Still, we have seen what he is capable of, he is coming back so I hope he can recapture it and have a great season.

I'm OK with Lacho coming back. He does need to produce more than he did last year though.
