Same old same old, let's bring a fan favourite back rather than fresh blood, never going to give Belfast a run if we keep doing this. Also why the social media big push for the video? Why can't we just announce like the other clubs do? Makes us look a bit classless

Just listened to his interview with Peter Spencer about what went wrong last year.I think A fully fit Vally will score goals, and that’s what we were lacking last year.

I may be in the minority, certainly on this forum, but I think this is a great signing.

Very rare you can add this level of EIHL production and experience.

I think with a full pre-season under his belt he’ll score plenty. Certainly knows where the net is.

What's the issue? Classless how? Clubs announce players in different ways these days. For example, teams have had a countdown theme recently.

This is a good signing IMO. Proven EIHL goalscorer and great defensively.

I can see Vallerand playing 2nd line, which would be excellent for us.

It's just embarrassing, I've been a steelers fan since the late 90s and it never used to be like this, I don't even like the 6.00am nonsense we do.
Why can't we just announce them without building them up just to be a disappointment.
Fair enough if it was Sydney Crosby but not just a returnee who did nothing last season.

not sure if im ok with this signing or not, think his best days are behind him, but there is that continuity there in that he knows whats expected from him, and surely he cant just go from being a good player to bad one in season and half. it might work out, he is just one piece of the jigsaw. But i think i would prefer to see new younger blood insatead

I beg to differ.

I would be very concerned if this were the case.

I’m ok with this as long as there’s more reliable goal scorers to be announced. I’m sure Vally will score for us and if he remains fit will provide energy and motivation but we need more.
