Looks to be a decent signing, worrying he hasnt played in a couple years but still young enough. I cant reiterate it enough and say we have to carry the spare import. If this completes our forward lines then we lack quality depth scoring, especially when we pick up injuries.

Flyers sign Brit D man ex Flame Richard Krogh Should be a good signing According to elite prospects hes a forward. Looks like a good signing if true. Would hope we then complete the roster with a guy like Mike Mckee. So he is well spotted, I never noticed that. Hopefully, we do sign an enforcer type Dman as our last import signing.

Any idea where this has come from?
Young guys who seems to have not played since 18/19 season but was the assistant coach with the Guildford ladies team during 19/20. Seems odd him not playing at all that season.
2 years out the game at 19 and 20 years old! be Interesting to see how he gets on if this one is right.

Hopefully, we do sign an enforcer type Dman as our last import signing. Absolutely comical that folk in here still hold out hope for an enforcer type player signing with the flyers. Tired of hearing it to be honest Direct your hope to more realistic things. Trying to be optimistic but this team looks dire! I sure hope I am wrong. Barely signed their 14 imports and housing/ cars aren’t ready. As much as it’s needed I Don’t see carrying an extra as many of you seem to think. Few of these guys didn’t play last season. Short preseason, inexperienced. All for some young guys proving themselves but over half of this roster is in that boat.

I never once said we would sign a guy like McKee just stated that he would be the final piece in my opinion. In regards to short pre season think all teams are in the same boat. What’s comical is folk moaning like wee lassies before a pucks been dropped.

We've had 3 guys in the EIHL era that could drop the gloves and hold their own, so it's been done in the past by the current coaching team. I'm just hoping that they have realised this season with a lot of younger guys on the team that it might be required again.

Strange signing this one if it is the case. Boy looks no better surely than Gary Simpson off to NIHL, Caly Robertson lost to Dundee, or Chad Smith likely to sign for Kestrels. Surely won't be a full time player wages wise.

Just can't see anything more impressive that means we don't make more of an effort to develop what's on our doorstep. Unless the case is some of our local boys are not willing to go back to Flyers every chance of that. Will be a bit odd if this boy comes up the road and gets ice time where other local players didn't, but I suppose let's wait and see his standard.

He has 1 point more than them. Hope that lad does well but yeah dont get signing him over a local guy.

Hope that lad does well but yeah dont get signing him over a local guy. My point is he’s not a downgrade on them he’s as good if not possibly better. The local guys either aren’t ready or don’t want to play for Fife don’t mind the club looking outside of fife for talent in the mean time. Obviously would be better to have local guys but can only hope the kid does well.

Can’t run 5 all season thats why im saying run a spare dman, so we obviously cant find a british defenceman so sign another import with the money we were going to use on a brit. Rotate 5 out of the 6 defencemen on a nightly basis. The only way round not being able to sign a capable british defenceman and gives us depth. We run 7 import forwards and for example Chase and Stadnyk get injured that means Jamieson and Krogh getting in the top 9 with potentially mckenzie in the top 6, something mckenzie hasnt been capable of doing for a few years now.
