Gone - new coach ex NHL player & asst coach Paul Gardner
He might pick up some decent signings for them - if he can overcome players not wanting to sign due to their shotgun hire & fire approach & poor way of treating players from fans and management alike

I still bet his first job will be to sign up a better defence. Doesn't take a coach to see that!

Paul Gardner so Braehead have gone from spending money on a team to a full time coach. This guy must be expensive he has a resume as long as my arm funny thing is most people use british hockey as a stepping stone onto bigger things so I would question why he is here. It is a bit of a downgrade for an Ex-NHL asst coach.
There is no way Black could possibly be on budget with clan this year the amount of hiring and firing that has been done is incredible. Good luck to JK he's a quality player and a born winner,
however, his recruitment has been woeful, if infact it is him that recruits the team over there.
He will do well for the steelers. Where does Frank Morris fit in now though. They have an asst coach in Galbraith and Gardner will assume bench duties so could he be on his way out? Would love him to be back in Fife (however, it will never happen).

Surely not our next Import!?!?!?
"Braehead Clan have appointed ex-NHL player and coach Paul Gardner as the new Head Coach of the Clan and
Jordan Krestanovich has informed the Clan that he wishes to leave the club within the next two weeks."

I very much doubt he'd join us a) could we afford him, and b) would he even want to come
I reckon he'll either be off home or playing for a bigger budget team in the league.

He's away to the Steelers by all accounts.
More meant Morris could do a job for us we are crying out for a bench coach and the Clan now don't need him. It will never happen though.

Will Sheffield need to release anyone to sign Krestanovich?

You have to laugh at the Clan just now!
-Looks like Black has the only say in all activity concerning the Clan IMO
-Zemlak gets released only to join the league champions
-New goalie lets in 11 goals in first two games
-Still no defence
-Desperation signing of a good but not outstanding forward (Harmanis) who replaces an NHL'er
-Spent serious money in hiring and firing players
-Ex player Chamount joins rivals and proves he's can rack up the points
-New coach takes over but their best player/ex coach leaves
-Under-performing, yeah they lead the conference (just) but they should be higher than 7th in the league
If i was a Clan fan I'd be getting real Pi##ed off and the feeling I'm being taking for a ride. No stability within the organisation and although I admire the way they sell the on ice product the same can't be said with regards to the club's structure.
I'm not saying Fife are perfect but at least we have kept order to the squad this season, as an outsider looking into the Clan dressing room it looks so dysfunctional which seems to stem from the boardroom all the way to ice pad.
Will be interesting to see you they finish off the tail end of the season and where they finish in both the league and conference as ourselves and Dundee have a real chance of causing an upset.

Didn't see that coming quite so suddenly. Feel sorry for JK, think he's been kind of shafted really this season.
Onwards and Upwards for him I guess, I'd have taken him at Fife if was available. Same with old Frankie Boy, great bench coach, and we really need someone there

To be honest, we've not got much to be cheery about ourselves? If anything it's us being taken for a ride. Braehead for all the mistakes being made, are prepared to make changes to shake things up. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. Poor recruitment in the summer has been their downfall, they've been trying to fix that ever since. |
