It's very odd and doesn't feel great. I know I say this all the time but I have always wondered why the season doesn't start with a 'Magic Weekend' style event where everyone plays at the same venue - it would generate money and get the season off with a bang

This could be literally anything. Played for Canada U18s, called up to the A when a junior and has played in Finland but has also played on some of the worst teams in hockey history and put together a mindblowing -53 season. It's one of the odder hockey CVs I have seen He's definitely got...

My absolute favourite D man in the league - love watching him play the game, he knows exactly where he needs to be at any given time

Excellent news. Decent nettie and great to see him progressing. Lordo, now Aubry with new roles, wonder who is next

Yep, I just have a memory of him taking over for a bit as coach but maybe not...........

The only equivalent I can think of would be Mike Babcock who went from Whitley Bay to the NHL (eventually) but I can't remember if he just played for Whitley or did some coaching......... even if he did it was just one season rather than Lordo's multiple successful seasons

Delighted for him and hopefully more success will come his way soon

Prapavessis is a decent shout, his older brother played against the Devils for Angers a few years back and is in the same mould of solid D man

I'm genuinely amazed there are people talking about this in glowing terms. Every time I saw him he looked disinterested at best. He clearly is a decent goalscorer but he would drive me mad as a Devil and whilst I could be wrong, I would imagine he would be similar at Cov

Exactly. My gut feeling is that he won't be back and it will be injury related. His style of play is so tough on the body and given he had a serious injury last season and there were rumours of a second injury at the end, I do wonder whether the player might be saying enough is enough

Shows how easily memories of seasons fade but what was the story - did he get injured, as you say we barely saw him

Really strange one - he started the season so well and in his first few fights he looked a genuine heavyweight as well as a decent D man. Then he got beaten by Dallas Erhardt in a fight (who tbf is a tough cookie) and after that he faded a little. Shame he won't be remembered for scoring the GWG...

The normal reminder that most hockey players (and indeed most people on this forum) are, or were, migrants. The events in Northern Ireland are criminal rather than anything else and are often fuelled by lies and politicians with their own agenda. I agree with @Wannabe2 I wouldn't imagine it...

I know that his line was one where we could upgrade in terms of goals but........ still gutted. Loved how he played hockey, 100% each night, no-nonsense to anyone messing around and scored a few big goals so....... I guess this is a good move for everyone but, still going to hate seeing him in a...

First thought is that if you take out the name, this describes Brandt perfectly which seems to indicate that he might be a replacement ….
