32 goals in the ECHL last season... a mammoth -42 in the +/- bracket though.
Looks like a direct, much upgraded version of Matt Carter. Hopefully Shalla can do more than waft thin air at the back post!

Good goals output over a few seasons, hopefully can reproduce that here. Looks a good pickup to me.

Hopefully Shalla can do more than waft thin air at the back post! Looks like Indy Fuel were pretty brutal last year winning only 21 of their 72 games and finishing with a goal difference of -94. Think this guy looks good rather than amazing but his numbers show he knows how to find the net so hopefully he will turn out to be a reliable goalscorer for us. |

Considering the last few guys are supposed to be our top end can't help but feel underwhelmed. 5 years in the ECHL with only 0.77 PPG for what i'm assuming is our top line LW this is the most disappointing signing so far this year for me. He may come good just like all the others and i hope to be proved wrong but from our final 3 signings i was expecting more.

Excellent pick up this guy will get goals and his a decent unit. I'm hoping for near the 30 mark

He has played half the amount of overall ECHL games however, Shalla's PPG is higher than Mathieu Roy's and he has been called up to the AHL more times than Roy. On paper he should hopefully turn out a similar player to Roy with a little added size and strength. |

We seem to be a bit heavy with wingers now too. We only have Phillips who is a natural centre.

A genuine 30 goal scorer on a rubbish team. I'm very happy to have him signed up!

Mathieu Roy was over a PPG in his last two ECHL season and the guy who the Caps have brought in this year though admittedly the list isn't as long as i first thought.

Great signing, prolific goal scorer at a good level and still in his mid twenties. Hoping he's a new, slightly better Blair Riley.

So we will have 15 imports minimum. |

Happy but doesn't look like we are finishing the roster with blockbusters.
The team looks capable but nothing special on paper.

Because Panthers fans are used to see Panthers signing multi game NHL journeyman who want one last paycheck, there's been one exception to that in the last 10 years

Also now we have a S&C coach on board plus the team is averaging mid twenties we should be energized in the 3rd periods etc this year not look knackered like the past

PPG is a pointless ratio without context. E.g. Taylor Hall a potential 80 point player but only got 50 odd for Devils last year due to overall roster around him..... Shalla puts up 30 goals on a team that wins 20 games in a whole year. Good effort I say Exciting signing |
