Well seems there are more victims of the weller "signing news"
RUMOUR: Speculation on THF suggests that former @NHL and @cardiffdevils defenceman Craig Weller is set to join @steelershockey. -- British Ice Hockey (@briticehockey)
I think he is the favourite at the moment amongst the Clan fans, although I loved Cookie playing for us in our 1st season am not so sure about being the coach as we could be n the same position next season if he decides to leave and go back home.
My preferred choice would be a British coach or a import coach that is based in the UK and has no plans to leave. S we can build the club over next few years rather than season by season all in my opinion of course.
Would love Cook back as player or assistant coach mind you.
Im keeping an eye on the Austrian leagues gossip page. Weller isnt showing as staying or going yet. However I doubt he will be staying. The fans dont talk too highly of him. One said he was way to average for an import. I guess their standard must be a lot higher than ours.
He had 5 goals and 6 assists in 45 games which isnt great as I know he was playing forward at one point. His plus minus was -12.
I reckon he misses the Welsh hospitality and can only return to form if he comes here.
and the new guy will be a forward, is phil oreskovic a d man ? as he was linked to us when sawyer came to us , can't remember, if he is a d man it won't be him, but g sounds pritty excited about this signing.

I'd expect the Steelers signing to be a net minder as they did a press release the other day on needing to sign one soon and they tend to telegraph stuff
