Greyhound your quite rite about who is at fault but there in lies the problem he was never that type off player that is why he signs clone type players of himself.the other problem is ever since iv been going since 86 its always been the flyers way to play fast exciting hockey and play within the rules that was great back then when hockey was based on skill and not much physical play now in this era of pro hockey that style just doesn't cut it but sadly our coach is so blinkered and stuck in the past he either cant change or doesn't want to change how flyers play

Schaber and finnuci would be the first changed for me! I was willing to give finnuci time to prove us wrong but just hasn't happened. The way he dumped the puck on a 3 on 1 last night just done it for me. Schaber has a jeff lee look about him. Absolutely no end product and hardly notice him on the ice. Need to get the balance of lines sorted out. Think the biggest crisis we might have is ryan dingle. The guy is our best and most consistent player but he looks dead on his feet and it is beginning to tell. Having said that he is still out skating players on the team!! Bring in two power forward 6feet plus that can drop the gloves when required and you will see a different team

I take it Fox and Stockton are out through injury? Nothing was really said apart from they're not icing...

Yeah exactly my train of thought. I thought Stockton came in looking a lot stronger at the beginning of the season, clearly been working out over the summer but I can see that tailing off. A couple of months back with the lads and falling back into old habits maybe...

I actually think Fox has been our best along with Dingle this year, Stocks has impressed me more than I anticipated, wasn't really too keen on his return, but he's worked hard. But even with full import quota and balanced, fully fit players/lines, depth will still kill us. Believe in the ethic of Kirkcaldy lads, but we need a stop gap at the moment until the next batch are ready, we need 2 British lads in too, we can then effectively play 4 lines, well 3 solid lines, and a reliable 4th to ease the body pounding our top guys are getting.
The key to the entire thing though is a new coach is desperately needed. Year 6 in the Elite League, and this all sounds vaguely familiar to me, there is only 1 common denominator, he has to go (but he won't).
New Coach, then get in a couple of proper big physical guys to look after the team, and stop others taking liberties, without this, our season will simply fade out due to injuries and exhaustion.
Pass marks for me, Owen, Dingle, Fox, Paquet, Haines, Stockton
Will be a good player when the lines are balanced, and firing Sisca, Brooks, Isaacs, Moyer
Out Schaeber, Thinnel, Turon, Jackman
Can't decide Finucci (gut feel on a balanced line, he's a solid 3rd line guy, don't really think he's to blame, confidence is shot)

I pretty much agree but I think Moyer has been a good player this year. Looks steady at the back most of the time. However, you are right. Todd wont be going anywhere. He would of gone years ago if it was going to happen.

I am probably being harsh on Moyer in fairness, I don't think he's looked at his best the last 2 weeks, but, as an older guy, he's probably just spent :-) I'm not suggesting he be moved on, pretty confident he'll do a grand job

Crowds are dropping fast - Challenge cup avg 2250
League Avg - 1848
To drop 400 fans in a matter of weeks is unreal.
Take our first home game against Belfast 2521 through the door. Last night we only had 1667. That's basically 50% of what the rink can hold.
-854
To drop that amount of fans in 2 months for a gate based club has to scare the people running the club.
What did Todd say about enforcers "sure they put more bums on seat" Might want to start looking at youtube for a good fighter Todd

I think he has a problem understanding the difference between a Goon and an Enforcer. Vastly different.
