Paul -Sorry Corey but I’ve never been a big fan. You take too many dumb penalties and seem too lax at times. IF you’re trying to lead by example you need to take a good look at your game. However, It’s hard to knock the first coach to ever win two trophies for the Panthers but the months that have gone before and the lacklustre displays we all saw mean you have to. He has to prove that he’s learned from his mistakes next season. 6/10

Jono -Corey, like Jade, is a bit of an enigma. I’ve never been a fan of his style of coaching but you cannot deny his quality as a player. Had to be offered the chance to come back for what he’s managed to achieve this season, but I hope he can provide a serious and sustained challenge for the league title next season. 7/10

Iain -So much to carry on those shoulders. Still a great offensive threat,. When that puck comes back to the blueline you must feel the anticipation that I do right ? Starting to lose some footraces when the opposition get the break and has had my heart in my mouth with a couple of turnovers but major Kudos to the guy this year. A new found respect from me. 9/10

Greg -If Meyers gets caught out of position too much then he’s nothing compared to his coach. Seems to let pucks go by him for the thrill of the chase. OK, there’s the big shot but he barely uses the body for a man of his size and the number of lazy, dumb penalties really doesn’t set much of an example to the rest of his team. As a coach, It would have been less but for the last couple of months when he finally got round to asking Strachan how to defend. Naive at times the complete lack of plan B (or A) lost us too many games. He’ll go down in history though and will be back next season which is something I am not happy about. 5.5/10

    Still a standout defenceman. As a coach his work with Strachan won us two trophies. A full season together and MAYBE, just maybe, we’ll challenge for the League!
