He needs to get on a more offensive line and not keeping on PK

I think it's time for Lacho to get back to the player he was a few years ago by finding a line mate who compliments him. There was a reason him and francis did so well and that's because they knew each other's games inside out. Sadly, he has been misused and made a bit of a scapegoat since. But if he's given more ice time and chances to score goals, he needs to take it by the scruff of the nexk

I imagine this will be a mixed feelings thread.
For me, given the availability of Brit players and the requirement for them, he's important to us. So glad to have him re-signed, but will be hoping for more output.

There arent that many to go round, hes not the best but perhaps we put too much expectation on him after his first year. We all wish he was at the level of a Clarke or a Farmer, but realistically is he at the level of say, a Boxhill? Everyone has their talent limit. Its on the coach's shoulders to get the best out of him

Rather he left to be honest. Never really convinced me and always seems to be just going through the motions. He has an occasional good game is the nicest thing I can say about him. Is he good enough or corey just signed him back because he can't be asked to try and look elsewhere and Lachowitz is British.

He knows he can do essentialy nothing and still get a contract because he is British.

Boxill only got 6 points last year, so Lacho got more than triple his points, though Boxill did get one more goal. I think a few Brits have struggled over the last few years.

As Lacho fans keep telling me don't always look at the point production. Just a disappointing player in general

It's to easy for CN to put Lacko on PK or sticking on as center on 3rd line, he needs to be up with the import forward on offence, get him back to 11/12 to 14/15 seasons for goals and assist

Needs to be much better this year to justify a contract next year. But same was said last year, he didn't. He still got a contract. He could be even worse next year and would still get a contract

hoping for a better season than the past two.
PK work is sound, needs to be more ruthless and selfish in front of goal

Far too passive for my liking. looks scared of being hit each and every time he's out on the ice, and often looks disinterested and way off the pace.
4th liner & PK yes, but whats so annoying is he can be and has been so much more than than previously

Needs to increase his output. If this is down to Neilson or the player himself is a moot point. Awful last season and poor for several years. Would he be returning if better Brits were available?

Exactly, what motivation does he have? He knows his position is never going to be under threat because he is British and that is reflected in his play. Sub standard again last year and bought back.

So glad to have him re-signed, but will be hoping for more output. I couldn't be unhappier with this if I tried. A free loader that's not fit to wear a Panthers shirt. Were he not a Brit he'd be nowhere near the EIHL. Cardiff have signed a great upcoming prospect today in Moore, we've signed a one season wonder who's coasted for the past three years despite supposedly being at his peak. For what he brings to the team I'd have been far happier giving a younger prospect a fair bit more ice time.

If Lacko had not of signed for Panther's your saying no other Elite league team would not sign him?

Agree with totes. Lachowitz isn't good enough. He probably would get another team but not a top side. He has not done anything to justify a contract and the sad thing is he doesn't need to and he knows it.

Meh. Ive become very apathetic towards Lacho.
Once again he's being resigned on the promise he will produce more next season. But we've been burned 3 years in a row now on that front so i'll believe it when i see it. Not a bad signing for 3rd or 4th line. But i hope hes not a top 6 forward, because he doesnt deserve that atm.
Maybe he'll find his mojo again. He has the talent.

But as import quotas have gone up he's been less and less effective against better players. I just want to get hold of him,shake him and say for gods sake show some interest,grit and work ethic man ! 😤

Needs to be hitting 30 odd points this year for me anything less will be a disappointment.

He certainly played well in the GB team recently. Not as tentative as we have seen him on occasions. I'm pleased he's back, but he does need to be scoring 30-40 pts, not 15-20. Even Marc Levers, playing as a defensive forward, scored 20-30 pts when he came back.
