Name me someone who come from the echl on over a 1.0 GGA ? 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 Exactly right and I never take notice of +/- stats in a forward too looking forward to seeing him play

Panthers sign 30 goal a season player at 25. This is a player on the up not some has been who hasn't had a decent season in years. This team looks very good on paper. Fact is we've gone with young, high potential players and not a player looking to earn a big pay check on his way down or scrounge for an education

Happy but doesn't look like we are finishing the roster with blockbusters. The team looks capable but nothing special on paper. Nice to see a change tbh. CVs mean nothing when they're out on the ice, these guys want a shot in the big leagues, they'll be out there busting a gut to prove themselves and win championships. We have 2 uni slots left for this year I think so maybe the last 2 signings will be the blockbusters for this season?

I think people are forgetting the calibre of the goalie these guys will have behind them too!

As a pessimist, I am getting excited about next seasons squad. Hopefully kolnik and lepine to complete the first team squad, then a couple of spares.

I think this could turn out to be an awesome signing. Excited to see who the last two imports will be.

It wouldn't surprise me if we ran with a spare out skater this season, or maybe that is wishful thinking

Excited to see what he can bring, hopefully a lot of goals! It's also worth noting that he played with Mosey last season for the Indy Fuel, if they are together on the 1st line then there could already be some chemistry between them. Welcome to Nottingham Josh.

Welcome to Nottingham Josh. Alas Mosey played 7 of his 9 games for Indy Fuel prior to Shalla arriving at Indy via a trade with Wheeling Nailers. So at most Shalla and Mosey would have only played together twice at Indy. Unfortunately as such this means there will be little/no chemistry between them. As for the player himself looks a very good signing given his points output to date. Hopefully as he has asperations to play in better quality and higher paid league's he won't be the type of player who goes missing on a Sunday night in Edinburgh... We've had far to many of those in recent past I'm looking forward to finally seeing this team out on the ice. Welcome to the club Josh....... And barring players changing their mind or family issues there's no excuse for any of the imports signed thus far not to be here for the start of training camp as it shouldn't take more than 3 weeks for visas to be approved.

...there could already be some chemistry between them... Ahhh, the idea that Neilson would allow such a thing as chemistry to get between him and messing about with the lines every chance he gets...

Knowing Neilson though, he will most likely think that Mosey & Shalla are an idea pairing after 2 games on the same roster... childhood friends such as Brown, Lawrence and Carter though, that line would have never worked 🙄

The only players ear marked for lines are Phillips (first) and Mokshantev (fourth) so we'll have to wait and see what he works on during pre season. I think big things will come from Bussieres. He's a big strong power forward who's put up decent points most seasons. He's well used to rough and tumble hockey from his playing style. I think that Shalla will slot in on the first line and just feed of Phillips as will Mosey and both Shalla and Mosey have good wheels. The boys will know they're backed up by a legit fighter who is actually willing to stick up for his boys and I think that will show through the year. We've got speed, youth, hunger, grit, ambition and potential streaming through the roster!

This roster is looking seriously good.
