An awesome signing if it happens and if we get the Evan Mosey that the league saw the first time around in Nottingham and later Cardiff before his bad injury. I hope he has got over that injury and not playing much hockey since, maybe the time off helped him in a similar way to what Armstrong is claiming...

I can't say I'd be particularly excited by this. I think Nottingham had the best out of him, since then injury and old father time are starting to catch up.

If it's true we're in the hunt, I hope somebody out bids us.

It has been confirmed Martin Latal has signed for us.

This is very much a wait and see signing as far as I'm concerned. 2 + 3 from 41 games hardly inspires confidence, but it was at a much higher level than our league and he may have been playing a more defensive role than he'll have with us.

I hope we've got a high end forward lined up who knows where the net is, because I think we look a bit light on goals this season. With age catching up with some of our players, I don't think we can be relying on the Connolly's of this world to be banging in their usual 25.

I've just listened to Fox talking about Latal and he says he's super quick, which is always exciting.

Also he's a very good penalty killer, which might not be exciting, but it's important.

To me he sounds a bit of a Bobyck type player, but hopefully with a more accurate shot.

Sounds like the type of forward we’ve been missing under Fox, only really been Phillips with any real defensive nouse.

The Czech Extraliga is the only league outside the UK I can claim to have decent knowledge of, and it’s a very defensively minded league with emphasis on structure. Not many goals scored there & players get no time on the puck so he should be useful in tight spaces.

This years roster rules allegedly 14 imports, 5 Brits.

Agree with this. Whilst he has unbelievable speed, we don't seem to have a lot of goals in our locker at the moment, and this is something Mosey won't bring to the table.

He's a decent player, but I don't think he is the difference maker people believe.
