More likely to be Ashley Tait,who is leaving the Steelers.New assistant coach maybe.Beleskey back
Its not an ex player, he is new to the country and its another player called Mike (or Michael)More likely to be Ashley Tait,who is leaving the Steelers.New assistant coach maybe.

Mike Henrich. It's his brother. I'm guessing he'll be the other signing.
So that's,
Mike Schutte
Mike Egener
Mike Zacharias
Mike Henrich
In a club owned by Mike Cowley...
The signing has been muted for a while,but still pleased to have it finally confirmed.Only surprise is that he was a high first round draft pick,but never got to play in the 'Show',however having played AHL and the DEL leagues suggests a high pedigree.Hopefully he will be a league stand out player.Team roster so far:

Looks pretty good! Having both Henrich's is a huge thing for us.
His stats:
http://www.eliteprospects.com/player.php?player=2082
Looks a decent signing,not much AHL experience,but has a good points record in the East Coast.4 more imports to come,probably 3 forwards and 1 new Dman.Our 3 import forwards look like they will put up good points,however our Brit forwards don't loolk like they will put up decent numbers,so it is important that the other imports are of a decent level.Secondary scoring is always vital for a team's success.Ideally the budget will stretch to getting Tait back,although I somehow doubt it.Coventry Blaze sign Ryan Ginand

Looks a decent signing,although his +/- stats are a bit of a worry.I still think we are a decent brit short of a title threatening side.Ashley Tait is still seemingly available,if would be great if the budget would stretch to bringing back our grand slam winning captain.Sean Erickson signs up to Bleed Blue.

It would be great to have Tait back as a player-assistant coach however considering his history he may not be welcome/allowed in Coventry for more than a few hours at a time!
As for Erickson's +/-, Benn's was one of the best in the league last season and plenty still moaned about his input so I shouldn't worry about that mate!
Well dreams do come true afterall.:claping hands:Looks a decent signing,although his +/- stats are a bit of a worry.I still think we are a decent brit short of a title threatening side.Ashley Tait is still seemingly available,if would be great if the budget would stretch to bringing back our grand slam winning captain.
All the various season ticket offers are on the Coventry Blaze website.I think it is about £382 for 27 home matches.Face-off times are 7pm for Saturday night games and 5.15 for Sunday games.A new signing will be announced early Friday.how much does it normally cost for a season ticket to see the blaze?
That seems ridiculous for a minority sport
its great value for money. you turn up, drink in your seat, see some skill (standing on the ice counts as skill for me, lol) see some fights then after pop into crosbys and mix with the players.
i started going back in the irvine, knights, carpenter, chartrand and steve coopers final season. was hooked from then. but it does take a couple of games to get used to the rules.
if you wanted to go but not pay as much then go and watch blaze enl team at the skydome. they play mostly on a saturday but will give you an idea if you want to see the big boys.
if you do go see the big boys then the games to see are nottingham panthers, sheffield steelers and cardiff devils (our biggest rivals traditionally)
not criticizing the entertainment just thought it would be nearer a tenner.
£20 for the speedway seems ridiculous
I'll echo SBZ's comments. Struggle to find a better value night out be it with family or friends/colleagues. Panthers, and Devils are normally pretty passionate affairs and things often get tasty on the ice!
Btw SBZ great to see a proper old school Blaze fan! Irvines' diving header was one of the funniest things I've ever seen. Loved Stephen Cooper as a kid. My lad will be some D-man with this name
