Todd saying in the press that he had the last guy signed but he wasn't eligible for a visa. Interview here No visa for our tough guy that’s a shame Happened before the utility guy Kyle Follmer

So he is well spotted, I never noticed that. 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 know it’s a handful of games in but Sadly this Looking quite spot on if I say so myself. The only positive I thought would be a hard working bunch but they aren’t even that. And I got slagged for this take before a puck was dropped. I just know the game unfortunately but I think most folk could have seen this coming.

Did I hear some folk say before a puck was dropped that the signings made by Todd were lightweight and lacked experience? Did they question the signing of the few returnees only to be shot down? Did these people making these observations also say to allow two to three weeks and the team will be playing Todd’s style of hockey? Were these same people shot down as being negative and told to be thankful that at least there was hockey in Kirkcaldy and to give Todd another chance? Maybe I was just imagining it.

I guess there is some hope in the sense NHL camps are cutting down so players will fall to AHL camps then be cut to ECHL so over the next 2 weeks with both NHL and AHL starting regular season games better options will be available. Issue comes when our owners wont spend cash I suppose.

The roster cap will make it difficult to make wholesale changes

The roster cap will make it difficult to make wholesale changes Exactly, but they knew that when they took the gamble to sign the players they did. Only got themselves to blame if they’re left with them. Also makes it difficult for if another coach did come in. A doomed season ahead

The roster cap will make it difficult to make wholesale changes Five out skaters one will be for Grigors so four “changes” need to make full use ASAP

Regardless how much he hates it

Or he just says screw it and shuts the doors.the fact they keep saying that they are a gate based club and do nothing to entice new fans to games tells me he wouldn't give a toss if there was hockey at Kirkcaldy or not

The roster cap will make it difficult to make wholesale changes Good point but irrespective of results there would never be wholesale changes here anyway, we didn’t make any changes when we were marooned at the bottom of the league last time out.

We can only make 6 changes in total between now and the end of the season. Can’t see that happening myself.
