So sounds like Mosey will be out for 6 weeks. Should we be getting a cover in and should we carry a spare import skater all the time?

Where's the 6 weeks from? The injury update on the OS earlier was as useful as ever.

A tweet. Mosey said he would be available as a dog sitter for the next 6 weeks when replying to something.

I'm sure GM or Corey mentioned it in an Interview on the OS too, if not on there it was mentioned in the Nottingham Post.

Hahaha so he’s let the cat out the bag then. You know,the little cat they were hoping to keep quiet whilst spinning a load of rubbish to the fans.
What was it they said 3 days ago....that he “may play on Sunday in Guildford. 🙄
One day,just one day,people will see that this clubs management are just a bunch of shifty,penny pinching,two faced liars !!!!

Should always roll with a spare forward and a spare d man if you are serious hockey team. It lets us down every year. Plus, players would be less likely to coast if they face being benched.
Belfast bring in a few cover players and they’re flying. We do nothing and enjoy our annual Christmas slump.

Nowhere has it been confirmed mosey will be out 6 weeks although I do expect he won't return til early January.
I wouldn't expect any player to come in 2 weeks before Christmas either.

I’m with Iginla here and think we need to bring another player in now.
From today 6 weeks take us to the end of January, from now until then we have a total of 17 games!
We need to remember that Corey isn’t a magician and can’t get someone here instantly but if we were to get someone in next week, after this weekends games, which I believe is feasible, it would put us in an extremely good position.
The club have made positive steps this season with the signing of two starting netminders and this decision is now bearing fruit after Galbraith picked up a knock against Guildford. I can recall Neil Black stating at the recent Q&A that our progression in the CHL had meant extra funds were available towards the money we already had allocated for an extra import goalie so the signing of Galbraith can’t be an excuse for not signing somebody else now.
It would also be a good opportunity for Corey to address the one key issue with this team which is... the power play.
If we could sign a player who is an experienced playmaker on the power play it would do wonders for the team in my eyes. People may not agree but I think Corey should be on the phone to Ling now.
He’s older yes and probably even slower but his playmaking ability will still be there, he could solely be brought in to run the poweplay and play in offensive situations and our depth would enable this. He also doesn’t have a team as far as I am aware so he could get here quickly.
What does everyone else think to this?

Early January would be pretty much six weeks from when he got injured though Pidge. And no a player would most probably not want to come in at Christmas. Which is exactly why we should have signed a spare a month ago !

Well this coming weekend is now massive. Two players out injured, a zero point weekend leaving us third, No cover as usual and the same old waffle from management. We’ve had a great start to the season but another failure this coming weekend will be a serious setback and again raise the spectre of season’s past. Our main competition acted quickly to get cover in. What will the Panthers do?

Instead of doing what they always do and mislead the fans that an injury is just an odd weekend missing,when they know full well it’s a lengthy one. #Schultz

I see we have another completely uninformative,pointless "injury update" on Mosey and Galbraith on the Panthers website today. Tells us absolutely nothing,Galbraith "we'll see how it goes" and Mosey will be out for "a while" it says........What is the definition of "a while" ?
It's Groundhog Day again. The definition of "a while" is....our medical team haven't got a bloody clue,we're not bothered either and so we will just string the fans along again as usual to avoid having to spend any money bringing cover in.
Get your act together Panthers management,or you're going to throw away yet ANOTHER season !

Well if they do throw it away Neilson is gone so something will give I reckon he will be gone next year anyway Pidge,of his own choice. He's just biding his time now,putting a few trophies on the cv,waiting for the kids to grow up and the right offer to come along.

Whilst not having cover for an outskater is disappointing, you cant really say we are two players out with no cover when we are running two very good import netminders.

Of course you can.....when only one netminder can play. I don't think it's coincidence,that as soon as we start playing short we suddenly lose three out of the last five games. Especially with two of those being home games with two also against what you might term smaller teams. This Panthers team is decent,but it isn't that good enough to win easily. Look how many games we've won by the odd goal and we haven't blown anybody out the water yet all season. I just cannot understand why any team would not give themselves the best chance to win if they can,it doesn't make sense. Panthers should have a spare D and a spare forward from the start of the season.

You can't count an import goalie as a second player out for the exact reasons you've argued for. You can only play one so we are really only Mosey short. Having said that I fully agree with your arguement. It's easy to say we don't need one when things are going well. Don't get me wrong. It has to be the right person not just a body in for the sake of it now, but integration shouldn't have been a problem as they should have been here from the start.

The salient point is, we have two players out. Neither Mosey or Galbraith will be available for the foreseeable future. Any more injuries with no movement from management and we all know what will happen.

Elite prospects has Brandon Buck as a rumoured unknown, 29 years old 6ft 1 plays left wing last 3 seasons and the start of this one in the DEL, had good numbers until this season where it’s reduced slightly but defiantly worth a phone call in my opinion, get Galbraith to give him some perks of being a panthers coming from the same league.
