Damn.
Not only is that a loss for the Panthers IMO, but as a GB fan I'm also concerned that it may rule him out for the Worlds next year.
Good luck to him, wherever he goes...

While I would have liked him back, I’m not too disappointed that he’s not coming back. On the plus side it gives us the ability to upgrade on him.

I think he played for GB the season he went back to NA, And Tbh it is likely to be the highlight and pinicle of his career to play in the worlds next year so I cant imagine he'd want to miss it. Perhaps even to the point it is negotiated into his next contract if needed.

As others, not overly worries by this, as others with more points production will be available. Wonder if he has promised to join Corey, wherever he ends up.

The first time he left, it felt like a bigger hole had been left. This time - I’m not overly saddened. He isn’t a top 6 winger IMO. And that’s not a slur on him because he’s given his all for this club. But I honestly feel for where this team is at, we’ve got a chance to upgrade here and move forward.

Good luck to him, I quite admire him for leaving the comfort zone and not taking the easy option.

Good luck to him, I quite admire him for leaving the comfort zone and not taking the easy option. Agreed - can't fault his ambition...

As soon as we told him we wanted him back he couldn't have gone to any other EIHL team.

The Panthers website says the following:-
Based on that... I'd have thought that he would not be able to go to another EIHL club next season. He was contracted to us, but pulled out of the contract - the Panthers didn't terminate the deal, he did. So it would probably be the same as a player leaving a club mid-season... can't go to a rival club without permission. The season after, of course, would be different.

Bigger players than him have come and gone, it’s a shame and he’s provided us some nice memories but Cherno has built a solid squad so far. Looking forward to next season still.

I like him but as others have said, I would reckon the club can upgrade on him. Good luck wherever he ends up next season

Does that leave room for Erik Lindhagen as the utility player

Does that leave room for Erik Lindhagen as the utility player Asking myself the same question. Undoubtadly better players out there but again it comes down to the role he is to fill. Never thought we needed Mosey and Lindhagen last year as well as players such as Brown (different players but not enough points production). If he is to join Ollie and Lacho on the 4th line and therefor continue to be available to jump back to D if needed, then I personally think it's a good signing. However it wont be an issue if he doesn't return and we upgrade. As ever with returning players like this, similarly to Billingsley it's all about how you upgrade around them.

Somewhat of a suprise to see him sign in Denmark?
