Announced earlier that Betteridge will playing in Europe next season.
So that is at least two brits gone. Hope Graham / Pacha can attract some of the others to sign otherwise our Brit pack will weak.

Neilson is committed to University of Alaska-Fairbanks in NCAA. His career trajectory is currently destined for bigger things than the EIHL.

I wonder why he didn’t want to re-sign with a new coach in place . It’s all speculation of course but I suppose better money , perhaps more high profile Club/league?

Thing is, it's not a particularly better league. Looking at anyone who has played in both, they have a higher scoring rate in Erste Liga. Perhaps it's a consequence of the salary cap, although that hasn't stopped Devils signing Martin and Bowns who will be on decent wedge.

I would have thought implementing a CEO and signing a new head coach might have been a positive factor in getting players to return.

I’m disappointed that Ollie’s left but it’s great to see players pushing themselves out of their comfort zone and trying to develop. I’d argue that the league he’s gone to is a lower level than ours so hopefully he can score for fun there and in turn becomes a better player.
Can Pacha and Graham pull a rabbit out of the hat now? Hook would be the ideal target.

He must be desperate to get away to wind up in the Hungarian league!

There is still one rotten common denominator still in overall control though however much they dress up the new regime with fancy new job titles etc. Neil Black !!!

Hook is another one ... Put it this way if panthers go for Lacho and Kelsall that's quite telling of the season ahead...and not in a good way . The Brit pack has been tragic for years.. it needs to improve! Just signing 37yo Myers won't cut it

The Brit pack has been tragic for years.. it needs to improve! Just signing 37yo Myers won't cut it If only it were that simple. It’s easy saying we need to improve the Brit pack but if the previous regime burnt bridges with the likes of Betteridge and Perlini with Brits not exactly growing on trees and the ones that are around generally stay where they are then it’s easier said than done to strengthen the Brits. We might end up having to accept that we’ve got to do with Lacho and Kelsall for a while and hope we can eventually tempt players in hope that the likes Hopkins develop well. For this season I’m just hoping that the quality of imports compensated for a weaker Brit pack
