Devils Realease Milam

Shame that Jamie didnt live up to the high standards he thought he could supply, it just wasnt happening from him. Please Please bring in a guy who can play but can also look after himself, a guy who if you enter the crease then look out, either that or G drop back, and sign a power forward in the Mcintyre mould. Anyway we have removed a weak link so hopefully we will get stronger.

Sadly he didn't live up to expectations and was certainly over hyped in press releases. He arrived unfit, stayed that way and as for controlling our PP and unleashing a fearsome shot ?????? I actually think certain import players see the EIHL as a very minor league and are surprised by how competitive the league can be once they arrive. Due mainly to teams playing 3 line hockey, the fitness of players can soon be found out, and he was. I hope he gets fixed up elsewhere very soon and wish him well.
I don't like calling out players as a rule but this is definatley overdue and had to be done.
We all had high hopes when we heard this guy was being brought in to be the 'quarterback' of our PP and his this cannon of a shot but we simply didnt see either unless you count 2 half decent shots and of them being on the road so teh fans never saw what we expected.
As been said he never looked fit and never looked happy.Our teams have always been built on grit and the fans will forgive anybody as long as they can see 100% on the ice.
I agree with Glynne I would hope we get a tough forward and keep G at the back and hopefully pair him with Quiney and roll 3 D lines again and have more power upfront and freshen then 3rd line who need some experience to help them out.

Crikey I'm agreeing with osh again! :lol:
As others have said, Milam just wasn't what we were hoping for. He wasn't particularly bad, but not the person who was supposed to be running our PP and leading the offence from the back.
Mason would be a pretty good fit I would have thought. Although I might as well try to get in first and say....... Weller is coming!!!! :lol:

Good move by G and Franny imho, I hadn't seen enough from him to even warrant giving him a chance... I wish him all the best in the future though!
Looking forward to signing announcement, hopefully whoever it is it's a hard hitting tough man... Perhaps as a short term fix maybe Scarborough could be given a couple of games over the weekend with G staying on D'?
