Interestingly I think Devils are the only team leaguewide at the moment not to announce losing a player. Not the full set as there’s been others (plenty of teams with multiple!) but an example for each: Belfast - Brandon Whistle Nottingham - Ross Armour Sheffield - Cole Shudra Guildford - Ben...

I remember listening to an interview with Henry Staelens who was Ice Hockey UK CEO at the time, and he compared us to Hungary. Similar world ranking, similar player base, but something like 5 full time staff in our organisation vs 24 on theirs. This isn’t our level and we’ve overachieved in the...

Bayley Harewood looking lively against some NHL opposition.

5-0, goodness me.

Great news - does make you wonder re the makeup of the rest of the D though. Welsh in but at whose expense? Surely not straight for MacLean?

Logan Neilson announced as moving to Diables Rouges de Briançon in the Ligue Magnus in France.

Phenomenal news!

Personally I don’t see Stoever sticking around for another 3 years or so, so I feel like the succession planning talk/age talk is slightly irrelevant. In the immediacy though, I think he’d be great for another year. I don’t hate the idea of Bownsy at 1A & a Lucas Brine maybe as a 1B. Not sure...

I’m bringing some ‘Offseason Nonsense’ energy rather than rumour here but… Christian Stoever just posted on instagram a selection of pics over the last year with a caption of ‘That was fun, thank you Cardiff’ Read into it what you like.

This was exactly where my thoughts were, worryingly. In an ideal world, a threat of Bristol helps somehow pull some strings re an ice pad in the new Bay Arena.

This is actually really interesting as the AO Arena doesn’t even have an ice plant at the moment. Think PlanetIce has really tried to force Storm’s hand here - expect to see a very vague statement pretty soon.
