Is it a coincidence that with 2 former forwards as coaches that we always seem to look to forward players to bolster the squad. I was hoping since we have an extra forward already that we might get an upgraded d man in either for cover or upgrade on Bafaro who is a hard worker but struggles at this level. Unless a forward is due to go? This boy looks like a rookie pro, so maybe he will bring energy and grit I don't know, love to hear what the strategy is.

Another TD clone no great size or physical presence If he adds much needed speed i'd take that for the time being.

A great goal scorer as a teenager in the GOJHL (whatever level that is) but not that good since. but is he a relation to the mcdougal that was with the Flyers decades ago? Just asking..-

Let’s hope he’s the speedy goal scorer we need. I can’t see us running two spares.

His numbers dropped in college but NCAA is a top level he’s done 5 seasons there and 2 as captain. Hopefully he’s real find for us.

Meanwhile Dundee bring in grit in another import d, and experience and squad depth with Moore. They now have loads of viable Brit depth, including two young boys on 2 ways. Not saying they are doing any better, but flyers not having actual depth they can use or grit apart from Sandstrom and very occasionally Larry, surely is not great.

Why has he left though, serious breach of contract? What's he done?

Why has he left though, serious breach of contract? What's he done? The rumour doing the rounds on Twitter last night is he refused to wear a pride shirt but that just hearsay atm. Could be anything. If he stays in the league I see him ending up at panthers.

Just saw that on THF about the pride jersey and apparently, that wasn't the reason for his breach of contract. Interesting.

I'm sure that to sack him on serious misconduct if it was due to him making a choice not to wear a pride jersey, would be difficult as it's a freedom to express thing surely, as in his freedom to express his disagreement with the pride movement or similar. I'm sure he will have easy access to better teams than ours, but yes he would put bums in seats, and give our team a different dynamic. My only concerns with those type players in our team is that we don't have the depth to deal with the undoubted penalty minutes. But this year do teams still have the right to replace a suspended import with a spare for that particular game as they did last season?
