Can anybody on here remember if it was Vezio Sacritini who had his jaw/teeth smashed up in a game when he played for the Devils? I'll never forget it. I was at a game (in the centre of Cardiff) many years ago, and a fast skillful player with a name like that took a puck full on in the face. I'll never forget it. He skatded off screaming with blood pouring out and spent the night in hospital (at least) having his teeth/jaw rebuilt. Anybody remember?

Pleased to have Mosey back. Still skates like he's a teenager. His speed has saved us on numerous occasions. He had a dip in form, at one point, like every other player in this team but his versatility is key. Good news.
Means nothing, seem to remember hendos wife/partner got job as a teacher , and hendo told he wasn't wanted . Don't think lordo and hendo seen eye to eye after that which resulted in their scrap on the ice which was anticipated.
Rumour is that Helgy will require a few months to recover from his surgery early season. Hopefully that means MacLean is the only one we lose, with Welsh replacing him! Offers great depth and means Mosey can play the dual role later in the season if required.
OK, so why would that be a source of criticism? I think too much is being made of comparing him to his Father. Peak Vez is a top line EIHL forward all day. Jake's comparisons should be with Duggy, Benny D and Bayley really. It's his first pro contract, he tickes a heck of a Brit box for us with his experience and yes, he does come from a family with a great lineage and more importantly, a great attitude from everything I have seen. This is Todd and Thommo at their crafty best for me.
If harewood hasn't the promised full time devils call up , he will look elsewhere, he's proved he's capable in the games he played last season, and that would give us possible 4 welsh players in the squad, Davis, harewood, sacratini, and Harry Thomas.
