Why would Steelers let moose go best keeper in league As for westerling and Fitzgerald No thanks , moose , marquadt , fretter , valdix , fitzy , westerling have all been realeasdd from steelers sheffieldsteelers.co.uk/steelers-statement-3/ As Thompson said in his post game interview it's the League they are most interested in They won nothing last season and by their standards probably a poor season only finishing above Fife for example due to injuries in Fife squad Gap to far from Cardiff at present so wholesale change needed Fitzgerald the Clan will take him back but the day of Enforcer coming to an End the Clan may even get Rosehill back also and Nickerson as Pete Russell is new coach then they can have one on each line Sounds like Thomson was told to let Fitzgerald go

Your right there, Flyers thought we had signed PAUL HAND but we got paul hand instead, mega-disappointing signing in the day.

gauthier , iles to steelers westerling , moose , fitzy to fife i would be happy with this but i’m not sure if other flyers fans would be happy with fitzy Fitzy can Fitz right off, liability in defence, like when Paul Hand signed for flyers to bring toughness his heart wasn't in it. We need toughness but not this cheap dotard under tod fitzy will be a lot more controlled and could maybe actually show his talent and not his brutality

With any luck we'll get some news on the players we are keeping or new ones coming in by the end of July.
Talk from play-offs of Fife being gutted of players by top four.

Fitzgerald- slower than a week in jail. Does all his best work in warm ups feeding the youngsters around plexi with pucks.

Guessing the reason Fitzy is leaving despite his coach praising him to the hilt is that the league is gradually phasing players like him out. You look at the quality of hockey now being played and it’s pretty clear that these guys are a waste of a roster spot.
I’m growing tired of guys like him and Gagnon that HAVE to be involved in everything including when their team-mates have been hit cleanly. It’s a circus.

Sorry guys but let’s have a reality pill here From what I understand 1. the top guys at fife get paid as well as the top guys in other teams 2. there is a long history of guys being looked after in fife 3. Players enjoy playing for fife 4. Our import roster has generally been competitive So why should we swap our best players for others rejects and why would they leave Let’s leave it to the coaches to do what is right We should be confident we can retain and recruit top quality imports our challenge has and remains recruiting top quality brits Re Fitzgerald if he goes anywhere it will be to replace dinosaur Rosehill with dinosaur Fitzgerald two years ago he would have been a decent signing but not now

I really hope not. Probably one of the best d-men I've seen in a Flyers jersey and for him to go out on the back of that terrible injury would be a shame. first and foremost I hope he makes a complete recovery. But I really hope he can lace em up once again and preferably for the Flyers.
