Unsung hero Danny Stewart Brit of the year Stephen Gunn D of the year Matt Delahey Forward Ryan Dingle Fans David Brown Players Matt Delahey Top points Ryan Dingle
What's the thoughts? I would have liked to see Caig get something, maybe forward of the year, other than that can't really argue.

I would have liked to see Caig get something, maybe forward of the year, other than that can't really argue. Tend to agree, mid-season when Caig was struggling to find the net, he was in all the dirty area's, throwing hits and even dropping the gloves on a few occasions. He wasn't finding the net but found a way to help the team win until he found his scoring touch again. Hope we get him signed up for next season.

I don't see any action about resigns for next year. Other teams are doing it. Why not us

Which leaves us behind other teams in preparation for next season. Take steelers for example 8 guys already signed up (10 if you include the 2 young lads) They can send these guys away with programmes to improve strength and conditioning and be in touch throughout the summer preparing for next season. Also increases the time they can spend selecting new guys to come in. They will be in CHL action in August so being well prepared is a must.
We will speak to guys in early April. I can only hope we have done more but going by previous season's Todd has said before that he prefers to give guys time away before thinking about next season. From the playoff weekend until the week we will bring the team in for preseason its only 21 weeks!
As it stands only 2 teams have nobody either announced as resigned or already in the middle of a multi year deal, those are the Flyers and the Caps.
Why we haven't got contracts signed for next season from Dingle Nico Delahey to name just a few is something I don't get.

I agree there is a couple of must haves, but I think Dingle will go back to be near family with his new kid, but he is worth waiting for if we can persuade him, Delahay will I'm pretty sure be keen to be back and in all honesty he has stayed under the radar with most other teams he is really a flyers secret as to how steady he is. I see no problem in waiting to see what else is available for the money before asking any of the others back (except Haines who I would think like last year will have a contract in his pocket before he leaves) We signed up nearly the whole team quickly from players the previous year 2 seasons ago and that turned out to be a mistake. Dundee have signed up players for next year from a largely average and uninspirational team, it's nothing to get excited about really.

I wouldn't focus to much on the team we signed 2 years ago, different mindset from coaches and players compared to that group.
As for Dundee Faryna their top scorer (and PIM leader) is a very good resigning for me, 8th in league scoring charts. Craig Moore a guy who has got better and better as the season went on (part of the GB senior squad reserve list). Hart and Switzer inpressed me when I saw them. Pretty decent core to build around IMO.
I'm not saying you have to sign up players but guys like Delahey will get other offers. He aint no secret around the league. He is one of our top 2/3 defencemen other coaches wont be slow in getting offers out to guys like him.

I accept that some players may not want to return, that's life. Tell us. Do we start from scratch again in August?

The bigger teams who he might be interested in going to, don't go for low key players like Delahey, there fans demand big name signings (hockey snobbery), do you think that the Stars players that have resigned would have done so if there was a chance they could have got a better deal from a bigger team. Faryna is a player I would like import wise, but the other 2 would not have improved any team in the league (bar Caps of course)

Faryna is a really good player. He put up those points whilst pretty much carrying the agitating/enforcing duties. Had the vaunted Doug Clarkson done that job Faryna could of spent less time in the box and even more time scoring. It would be great to have someone like that next season.
I'd like to see Delahey, Caig, Haines, Stockton and Dingle signed up early doors as I feel these guys more than any others made our team tick and always worked hard. Sachetti is then a clear must with a few others nearer that quality the aim when filling the rest of the roster.
