I think it’s fair to say there’s no health issue. Just seems a rumour started that everyone ran with. Reality is he was injured, came back and played through play offs. Simple as that unless someone wants to say otherwise if they are actually in the know?

I’d argue Brandt was one player who actually improved under Pete Russell. As others have mentioned, I think he’s got a lot more to give than what others are giving him credit for. Within squads of such turnover (not many other sports change nearly half a squad) we need ‘culture’ players and...

As a man who knows Carruth I’d say this statement confirms he’s off then!

Maybe the thought process should be having two good keepers pushes one another to be better. Would Bowns have had as good a season he had if he had someone sat behind him not pushing him? Both had injuries…had to get momentum going again. Let’s see!

See Carruth was playing in Joey’s testimonial and now isn’t. He’s still in Cardiff though so perhaps got a new committment. Andrew MacWilliam and Josh McDonald both still here as well. Obv Josh is signed for next season…

I see him as a Donaghey replacement, personally.

Surely if his injury was serious enough to retire we wouldn’t have seen him ice at the end of the season. I don’t buy it. If it’s career ending, you’re not on the ice again. Maybe one game you’d try but to get through them all. No chance.

That last sentence seems to imply you know he’s off somewhere else?

According to Elite Propsects he shoots left so on balance he’d be a replacement for Gourley, Batch or MacWilliam (assuming Fournier is back).

Riley Brandt had 5 but only 30 games so he was on for a season best at the Devils before his injury.

You’ve heard a hell of a lot recently fair play. Would love to be sat wherever you’re sat.

The hockey he’s playing at the moment though, would we want to lose that on the ice? Agree wholeheartedly with the sentiment. Just think we’re a season or 2 too early for him yet.

Thing is, we’d want players like Gourley (early season version) to be apart of a new Devils core. We want to get younger; he’s younger and from what I’ve seen before, clearly has the ability. I go back to my earlier post - just feels players aren’t necessarily playing their natural game. So that...

The thing is, before this season we knew about Fournier and Donaghey. Donaghey had a solid season last season; Fournier great before. So why not this season? I know PR was here last season with Donaghey but there’s got to be an element of tactics or something impacting these players. I thought...
