I've never quite understood why such a good keeper like Owen as not moved up to another team, such as Coventry... he is a decent Netminder IMO He did play a season with Belfast in 19/20 (including playing all 6 of their CHL games), and as it happens Coventry as well in the EIHL series. As said thou...

I can't agree with your d.line up i think foxy will be a 6 import d and kelly will learn his trade as and when suited.

Kelly will go elsewhere if that's the case.

Gareth Chalmers has been named as the new chief commercial & operations officer of the Fife Flyers, which doesn't seem to have gone down well with some fans! Jayboy Yup, and quite rightly so. Only positive is with Max Birbraer in overall charge, if he's anything like off-ice as he was on it, will d...

That's certainly interesting. Because of comments I've read in the past I've always assumed North American rinks are generally smaller. Maybe it isn't the issue I thought it was. I've seen some ECHL players who put up good numbers over there really struggle to have an influence in our league. I jus...

As ever a lot will depend on how he suits the larger ice in our league

Most college rinks are Olympic sized, or very close to. Saint Mary's Ice Arena is one of the very close to Olympic size. Not really an issue any more for players. NHL sized is the exception, and no longer the rule these days.

And the Cardiff coach is now.......

Didn't take long did it

How do you think it will feel seeing before everyone else the best ever coach to take the away bench?

Not heard any new updates coming from the fife media recently, which dosnt look too good, time will tell i suppose

Wouldn't make anything out of it yet. When our takeover was "close" to finishing, it wasn't announced as so until 8 weeks after that.

We chose to pay it because we have little to no choice, but that just does not make it right.. I would have been interested to hear the clubs point of view on this massive price increase and other issues since the new arena management has taken over. But we won't because the club will be effectivel...

As if "booking" and "facility" fees weren't enough already! What's next, a fee to pay the power bill?

Another fantastic achievement which goes completely unnoticed by the major media. Over 1.2 million fans watched ice hockey live this season, yet there’s no decent TV deal :hey: Remember, EIHL ain't a development league. So league management don't need to develop the skills to negotiate one! Another...
