Haha. Plewsy played about 70 games for Flyers. While that would probably get him on the wall of fame at Glasgow it doesn't make him a Flyers "legend". 🤣 Robbo was more ingrained with Flyers history, but legend, nah. Everyone will have their own opinions on "legends" but Robbo was voted best British young player of the year at Flyers with the trip to Calgary Flames training camp as the reward. Also contributed massively to Flyers success at the time both on and off the ice. Still heavily involved with hockey in Fife. I'd put him in the same bracket as the likes of Steven King and Davie Smith - certainly a local legend for me! Didn't Robbo win that while he was at Ayr?

Dundee PR showing us how it should be done again!
3 videos at least this morning, an interview with Matt Marquadt who has signed for next season, great signing. And season tickets on sale.
We do really make it hard for ourselves....

At the end of the day we all have our own opinions on those hockey players that we remember. Any time I'm in the FIA and Plewsey and/or Robbo are there, they always stop and say hello. Same with their boys. Tyler and Caly are fine young lads who have a good future in the game. At the end of the day we all decide who are our own legends. I respect others have their opinions to. Have a good summer. So Plews is your pal then...but definitely not a flyers legend, in fact he's barely an ex flyers player, and definitely not remembered fondly by most flyers fans who witnessed his assault on Todd that night. True flyers legends are the ones who gave their all for the club, Robbo a great player, but again did not play for the jersey.

Robbo was a great player for the Flyers, legend? I dunno, maybe just. Plewsy sorry I was there that night when he jumped TD from behind he should have been banned for life after that, nothing more than a thug.

Could do a lot worse than signing up Plews' son for next season.

He's not nearly good enough. Seen him play a lot last season did you? Most improved player in Swindon last season, would like to see him get a move here but like so many others he wouldn't get the icetime he deserves.

To be fair, I didn't see him last year, was basing my comment on his time at the caps. He wasn't Elite league level at that point. Apologies if I'm not accurate.

I bet Todd would never play him because of the issues with his dad

Swindon fans admire his work ethic and work rate.
