I bet he wouldn't have to go that far, the EIHL would probably love someone like him.

I hope he lands somewhere. He seems like a positive guy and a good teammate. The NHLPA would be wise to employ him.

Goons spend a lot of time on the bench watching the game and doing whatever the coach wants to keep their jobs. McGrats spent a lot of time in hockey so obviously coaches like what he brought to a locker room, because it wasn't skill

That video would have been amazing if halfway through Big Ern just puts a dead stop to the rampage

The Nottingham Panthers have since tweeted out Resolute's photo of McGrattan off Wikipedia and AC's McGrattan 14-15 Video.

I already love this team.

The Panthers also have former Flames prospect Logan Macmillan and former Hitmen standout Brad Moran.

I know this sounds bizarre but I'm actually the owner of the Cardiff Devils in the same league. This season is shaping up to be an absolutely huge one for the league. The Panthers have brought in Big Ern (despite me trying to get him last year), the Braehead Clan (Glasgow Scotland) has brought in Jay Rosehill and we've signed Patrick Bordeleau from the Avalanche. The British fans are in for a treat. Old time hockey still exists but you've got to go to the UK to see it!

Welcome to the league, Grats.
