Is Ostlund really the best we can do? A tender with stats that suggest inconsistency at best
I vaguely remember the excitement generated by Kantor what a waste of a slot that was. To put it into perspective he was the 13th best tender in the ICEHL his last full season a league not drastically better standard than our own.

The exact reaction I had, but has we have no confirmation its him, I didn't bother commenting on something in the rumour section...

If it is him however :asleep:

Yes I hope this remains what it is a rumour!
It doesn’t incite much confidence considering imo we’ve failed massively in the goalie department in recent years, taking into account who Belfast and Cardiff have had between the pipes, if indeed we aspire ourselves to these clubs anymore!

Once heard Fox didn’t get on with Poulin at Zagreb, so if that’s a true statement then I can’t see him coming here.

If it is Ostlund I hope he's our number 2, because his recent record doesn't inspire confidence.

5 new signings made by the club.
At least it’s a coaching decision not to announce.

As it’s already been said. I’m sure via multiple agents EIHL teams will already know who we’ve signed, so I’m not sure how showing our hand early makes much difference to be honest.

Pretty boring to be honest from Fox.

Joel Broda and Jan Mandat?
Would be happy with both of those to be honest.

Any goalie rumours?
