Not suprised Anderson is going. Another casualty. Steelers' Scandanavian recruitment didn't really work. The successful teams this year have been with predominantly North American imports on the roster.
Gone to SonderjyskE: Panthers wish netminder Patrick 'The Great Dane' Galbraith all the best, as he elects to join his hometown team in Denmark to play alongside his brother next season. Good luck Patrick, thank you for protecting the pipes for the Panthers! http://www.eliteprospects.com/player.php?player=16205
A good signing for Panthers I’d say. No doubt he will bring in a few players who he is familiar with and who have more than likely played at a level above the EIHL . Will probably also tend to play a more European style system, whether that will be the answer in our league is debatable. If I was a Panthers fan I’d think it was a good step in the right direction, a club as big as they are need to keep their fans happy and there has been a lot of unrest over the past few seasons with lack of success and trophies. The main way to keep fans happy of course is to win major trophies, it will be quite a challenge for him.
He has a great pedigree but his career suggests it is on the way downards.
He says he likes to play speed and size in an agressive style.
UK fans should like him.
Top signing for the Clan, and a clever move by Russell making him Captain, Clan fans loved him before, and will love him again. I think Peter Russell will do a great job at Braehead, he is a local lad and that local passion will come through. Fitzgerald will certainly put bums on seats, just a shame we won’t see him down here as much, as he is certainly entertaining.
