Brock Wilson was signed for the 2010/11 season and ended up not coming before signing again for 2011/12.
Netminder Christian Bronsard as well I think, signed for us and ended up not coming. Found his way to Sheffield though!

Janssen didn’t come second time. And didn’t Mosey sign again then pull out too and then came back a year or so later.

As the article states. Without Lizon pulling out we likely would never have had Janssen. Sometimes it works out well.

2 more I can think of...
Marc Maglairditi, 2002 goalie who was all signed then his team farmed him to their NHL team Phoenix! Shame would have been utter quality as I followed him for a few years after .
Dwayne Hay 2006 I think his name was pulled out as he picked up a career ending injury during that summer ..

Interesting story. Before the start of 07-08 he announced he wouldn't be able to pass a medical in Nottingham so said he was retiring. Then played a season in the Chinook League. For the next season he switched teams but prior to the season's start he signed for Orebro in Sweden. Halfway through the season he joined Arizona in the Central League, before playing a season in Italy and two more in the Chinook league. Now runs his own Hockey academy.

Yeah it was bizarre he started playing again shortly after notifying panthers he couldn't join them due to a potential career ending injury.. then he goes on and plays a number of seasons after

There was the sad non-return of Cam Janssen after he'd signed a 2 year extension with us, only for him to get a media gig in the NHL. Replaced with Brian McGratten
Broadening to the wider EIHL, will always enjoy Coventry's attempt to sign Mike Danton who was refused a visa (twice) for attempting to hire a hitman...

And Jade Galbraith who couldn’t get a visa to return to Clan because he’d been a naughty boy back home.

Stars announced him but couldn't get him a visa to enter the country Jade didn't return to Clan for the 13-14 year after Bannister quit as coach weeks into post-season from what I remember. Remember the two being linked in the coverage. He signed with the Arizona Sundogs instead but that fell through so he moved to Holland the next season. It was when Dundee tried to bring him back to the EIHL that his visa was refused the following year (14-15). But yes he's another on the list of announced but never arrived

Stefan Fournier was another,who even made it to Nottingham last year before things went wrong and he went back home again without playing. And who could forget Doucet’s cockerel up with signing Ben Bowns without checking the rules properly first. There’s certainly been more than a few mishaps ! 🤣🙈

If I recall correctly someone only got him a 3 month visa instead of a full one. He had to leave the country and ended up in Germany.

I feel like I may have mentioned this before but the wonderfully named former Edmonton Oiler, Darcy Martini was meant to join us for the final ISL season but pulled out and never played again.

Hunt was supposedly going back to Kunlun, but as of yet he still hasn't signed for them and they've started pre-season.

What’s the odds he doesn’t end up in the KHL ? 🤔

Had a thought, what if hypothetically his KHL contract falls through and he is on the market again would he be able to sign for another EIHL club or as panthers had originally signed him for next season does this mean he is no longer a free agent in the UK?

If he was back on the market and wanted to come to the UK, I'd be surprised if we don't at least try and get hime mid-season. From all accounts from GG, he was a big admirer of Hunt.
