    Congrats Belfast

    Irrespective of cries of how many imports, breaking wage barriers etc etc, congrats to Belfast for winning the league title. They proved once again the best in the EIHL, and having said that, they really didn’t have to be that good to beat very mediocre other teams in the league this year. As...

    Olympics

    Looks like the NHL decision not to allow any of their players to a play in the Olympic men’s hockey has well and truly backfired on them and won’t be popular in either USA or Canada. Canada were beaten by Germany 4 - 3 they could well have done with a couple of Devils players to help them out (...

    Cardiff - European Capital of Sport 2014

    Yep, Cardiff announced as the European Capital of Sport 2014, and it won the award despite not having a long awaited - and much delayed - new ice arena !!! No mention of ice hockey in the write up, but fair play Australian Rules football got a mention :DWD

    Coach's Corner 25/09

    Just watched G's interview wherein he answers various questions put to him. Good to hear him say morale is high, despite our very poor start to the season, also good to hear expectations are high. Unbelievable to hear him say he thinks the players are doing the right things on the power play...

    Anthony Beer

    My very best wishes to 'Father' Anthony Beer for his future in the Vale of Glamorgan area. Anthony was the author of the fantastic book 'it's funny when you win everything' The story of the Cardiff Devils. I don't suppose a 'Devils chant' would be appropriate during one of his future Sunday...

    Jesse Gimblett

    With so much focus on Deeds leaving, I thought it only fair to make a mention about our latest signing Jesse Gimblett. In view of how quickly he will be arriving, it is obvious that G had this sorted out for some time. Just hope that Biz returns and we can then look to go on a good run of...

    RIP Gary Speed

    A huge shock to learn of the death of Gary Speed earlier today. A man who was hugely respected in the game and a great servant to Wales as a player and most recently as manager who seemed to be bringing our national team back to higher world rankings. Absolutely stunned at this news, huge...

    Phil Hill Re signs for devils

    Reported in today's Echo that Phil Hill has signed a new contract for next season. This is a much needed signing in order to strengthen our Brit contingent and good news for the fans. I feel we now need to ensure a decent D Brit - it will probably be Symonds - and another quality Brit forward...

    Alex Symonds

    Did Symonds get any ice time at Sheffield last night. Also, for those who have the stats available, how much ice time/shifts has he had in the past 4/5 games ? Is he carrying an injury or just being benched at this time ?

    Main Cardiff Devils Website

    Any idea who is responsible for putting together our CD website? There is definately room for improvement in my opinion. We have not been told about Wednesday's away fixture against Blaze, there is nothing as yet showing last night's function etc. Quite honestly, the Inferno is a much better...
