Having done a terrible job the last few years on keeping the main posts updated, thought it'd be easier just to have links to rosters and let the thread develop...​

If it's a confirmed Devils signing, use the thread HERE

Also announcing Matt Greenfield is back for the 26/27 season.

Greenfield signed a 3-year deal last summer, so I'm guessing they're just confirming the players that were already in multi-year deals, with IBN likely being the one new.

 

[Jonesy83]

Steelers still going today and announce Liam Steele (appropriate name).
Gets a promotion to steelers from the steel dogs for the 26/27 season

[Jonesy83]

And Sheffield are still going…..Brandon Whistle to the land of Orange on a 2 year deal.

 

[Wannabe2]

Hopefully Steelers will sign most of this seasons team, and then we won’t have to worry about them.

Steelers with another signing - Olivier Archambault

https://www.eliteprospects.com/player/45274/olivier-archambault

Reminds me of Lacroix, but with better numbers. Bloke hasn't stayed at one club longer than a year since COVID....

Decent stats though.
