If it is looks like a panic last minute signing cos someone else let us down at last minute...would rather have Ricky Birzins back to be honest. What makes you say that ?

Like Ricky was last year... getting to near start of the season, did not have enough players signed due to being unable to finalise deals. So basically took players that were available and hope for best...do you honestly think Stoflet would be high on the must haves list. I can't even remember him, certainly not a stand out and his numbers no where near that of Birzins.

Did you travel to the two Lightning road games, if not then you didn't see him as he signed after the 2 games in Kdy. You might have watched the webcasts though but I find it difficult to get a feel from players through that media. So maybe he wasn't top of a list,you reckon some targets got away, well done Sherlock. So unless the remaining 3 signings have an NHL type pedigree are they all going to be panic signings ?

For the record from the game highlights of the 2 games down there he didn't appear to be on ice for any goals against and on for 3 Lightning goals recording 1 assist on a 4 on 4. He might turn out not to be what we need but a little perspective please before you rattle on the keyboard.

Looks decent spent most of his pro career between the ECHL and AHL. Won the Kelly Cup, mates with Charlie Mosey and Derek Roehl. Rick pinkston it is tomorrow. Another solid signing

Zamboni if you go on you tube put in his fights neither him nor stoflet if its true we have signed him also both aren't afraid to drop the gloves and if we were to get gagnon then for the first time we will have 3 d men who won't back down from anyone add in Bulmer gauthier and schnaber and we will genuinely have team toughness through out the squad

Pinkston would be a very decent signing Left Sided D Man so for me seems like a replacement for Younger.
D men at present:
Pinkston Aarsson Isaacs L D Man Wando
That would balance R and L particularly if we signed Gagnon and a skating mobile defenceman to play with Pinkston. Jace Coyle would be ideal and is someone we have been rumoured to sign. Obviously Stoflet is another possibility. If we do sign Gagnon then would be slightly worried about the 3rd line from a skating perspective. Guess we just have to wait and see.
