Anyone seen McGrattan's tweet? Suggests maybe a move to the panthers is on?
I'm lead to believe, from an informed source that we approached Big Ern some months back and he said he had no plans to come to the UK.
Big Ern is being lined up for a front office job within an NHL organisation.
Never say never, however I think this is just a case of 2+2=5

I agree with what's been said regarding McGrattan.
Though more along the lines of it being in response to the begging from some of our fans and him wondering who Panthers are, in a polite way, rather than the mocking.
EIHL fans are so easy to manipulate it's unreal. Nothing more than a Question Mark with Panthers' twitter handle and people think it means he's coming to us. Someone on the Cage even saying it means they're both in contact

No chance in hell will McGrattan ever come over here, far too many options open to him in Canada within the game for him to even bother looking how many teams are in the EIHL.
Only suitable suggestions/rumours i've seen are Josh Gratton & John Scott though obviously the latter is very doubtful. Simms' comments regarding us speaking to him/agent about him is the only reason i class it as suitable. All other 'rumours' which have been plucked from EliteProspects' Free Agents list with nothing to back the 'rumour' up are nothing more than garbage and it's incredible how stupid people are to assume we're talking to a player because someone said their name.

Assuming his grammar is good, the use of the ? Indicates uncertainty.
Had it been in reference to fans nagging, I'd have expected some reference to them as a direct question.
Maybe he's back on the booze and writing crap on Twitter.
Who cares.

That's pretty cruel thing to say about someone who battled to ovecome his demons and addictions and now helps counsel young players in the big league about managing lifestyles,pressures and related mental health issues. Would regard his turn around as a success story in a sport where those serious issues were not widely acknowledged until
only a few years ago.
