I'm sure his opinion on what we need can change throughout the offseason depending on other teams signings.
It should anyway.

We are not getting an enforcer That's a shame, if things go wrong playing wise attendances will drop off a lot quicker if you don't have an enforcer to entertain the masses. Unfortunately I agree but disagree ? .......... you should never have to play with one, BUT most fans and most players understand the reasons all leagues feel the need for the Enforcer to keep the league self governed and stop the cheap shots with knees , sticks , butt ends , hits to the head etc....etc Anyway COYF !!!!

The flyers need an enforcer. End of discussion.
Here's another question though, if you could choose what kind of player the last signing will be, would you choose an enforcer? A Ned Luka type player with skills on the puck? A fast player like Reber? Or another gritty forward?
It's an enforcer for me. I get no indication from the players the flyers have already signed that they could handle themselves against a team like Belfast, Sheffield, Braehead, even Dundee and Edinburgh. We won't strike fear into any opposition without a player like Nicker on our team.

It's a fight fire with fire situation. There's too many serious enforcers in the league to be going into matches without your own.

Given the rumour forum has only got one signing right so far I find it bizarre that someone knows the indentity of the last signings and that we're not getting an enforcer. #moanfest Todd and danny openly said. We won't be signing an enforcer like matt. We will have "team toughness" Now. That coukd all change very quickly right enough. And I for 1 think it should change. We NEED a massive tough guy

Listen to the end of the Clan Podcast I put on the Social Media thread They are concerned they don't have a Fitzgerald type either but there saying they have others that can drop the gloves I hope we are getting one to go with the more team toughness we have signed but...........we will know shortly

Dundee Have Clarkson also who challenged our bench when Nicker was out Caps Emmo stayed clear of Nicker last season but Nickers gone hope we don't end up being whipping boys

How about a few guys that will stand up to this? Sure, they may get a beating but the fact they're willing to show they won't back down speaks volumes? Are people really wanting an enforcer or are they wanting someone to win fights?

An enforcer on top of the toughness we already have wouldn't go amiss.
