Can’t understand why this guy doesn’t appear signed this season.

He certainly puts up points!

Off of social media I’d take him I think we could have maybe looked elsewhere but.. 25 goals in 44 games for them down there?

I've seen Colton Yellow Horn is a rumoured signing for us.

No thanks, he's well past his best and not a 25 goal player.

Sure he’s rumoured every year.

I'd be shocked as he's not very quick at all and Fox likes us to play with speed

I'm not convinced, he was outstanding for Panthers, but it's the one and only season he's put up those sort of numbers.

It would definitely be a wait and see signing for me, but I wouldn't be excited by it. His +/- was also outstanding for Nottingham though.

Possible but doesn't feel he fits the "fascinating" career hint in the Star.

I still feel it will be someone with some KHL experience, but as ever, could be way off base!

I'm hoping it turns out to be like the Watling signing......Not rumoured, but a very pleasant surprise when he's announced.

Would take welychka as the 3-4th line signing but as the first line? No chance.
Yellow Horn. Bloody heck, scraping the barrel of rumours there.

This guy is still showing as unknown it’s definitely our type of signing in the mould of Hodgman and Kristo.

https://www.eliteprospects.com/player/1 ... on-ferraro

He’s also a right handed shot which is what we will have been looking at to balance the two lefties in Vally and Watling

Just to add I think this would fit in with Bobs “fascinating”career remark in the fact he’s Ray Ferraro of NHL fames son.
