Tedesco to Belfast is a great signing

Great, great signing by Belfast top player, would have been chuffed to see him here.

Quite a few signings announced by teams across the league prior to the sad news breaking at Sheffield.

FLAMES | No mention of Tedesco leaving but two re-signed from last season's roster - Jordan Klimek and Peter Crinella

Tedesco to Belfast is a great signing

Yeah I'm a bit jealous of that one.

 

[Devils86]

CLAN | Charlie Combs returns to the EIHL after a season in Denmark (who was a Star in 2021/22 if you recognize the name) is a member of the Clan for next season

Not so good for Europe now is he....

Not so good for Europe now is he....

No doubt highest paid in the lge now with his stats from last 2 seasons...

 

[Gisland]

Not so good for Europe now is he....

Yeah, he is... Like or dislike, he is a good player and European standard.. Besides, it is still only a rumour.

 

[Gisland]

Giants add 2 to their defence. Jacob Friend and Travis Brown.

Both look very good players.

Hopefully with him back we get to see someone give the little PoS the pasting he deserves.

 

[ASHIPP]

Last 4 Giants' signings look complete quality...Barriga and Tedesco both excellent EIHL forwards, 2 new experienced NHL draft pick defencemen.

How the hell are other teams possibly going to compete with that?

If Conway re-signs with Belfast he should have a pretty hefty playing Ban from EIHL games for his social media outbursts.

 

[fridaysfingers]

If Conway stays with Giants they might need the best PK in the league after the shit he gave EIHL refs on Twitter.

 

[Devil94]

Maybe teams of Europe have heard of his character and decided it's not worth it. News travels fast in hockey.

 

[Gisland]

On Conway lets wait and see.If he has signed on for another season then I would expect his release to be the last. Hype etc.

Nothing will happen. It's the giants, after all.

 

[Mooney#16]

Personally I thought it was in pretty poor taste any team releasing announcements yesterday given the sad news about Alex Graham. We all know the world keeps on turning but whilst a team is grieving and thinking nothing of next season to go drawing attention to your own club I think was a terrible look. Giants and Clan should be pretty embarrassed by their arrogance. Devils too sent out a merch tweet I thought was pretty tactless. Compassion and empathy is in actions not words. Really didn’t sit right with me at all.

Belfast are going to be a tough team to compete against, beating them, well that’s gonna take some doing. This looks like another season of competition for 2nd 3rd & 4th place.

This should have been dealt with regardless of whether he stays or not. He made a mockery of the league that pays his wages.

Let's just wait and see when the final rosters are announced. The first preseason games will give an indication of each squads potential.
