As he was clearly available, we should have been moving heaven and earth to secure him for the season run in, imo.
Belfast & Sheffield bring in players for fun, this is one major area the Devils have severely lacked in.
I honestly hope we tried our best to get him, and if we did and it wasn’t to be fair enough. If no effort was made, it just sums up the expectation for season.

The Akered from a few years ago I would (partially) agree with you (the partially is because I would still like a forward to stand in front of the NM) but post-injury he hasn't looked great at all. Hopefully this continues 
.... if he gets back to where he was a few years back though then he will be a good signing.
It does show there are a few players out there so hopefully we can pick someone up

Coughler and Jardine getting back in the line up is one thing, keeping them there is another. Who knows how their bodies will react to the intensity of collisions in real game situations? They could just as easily be back to square one, which is why it’s absolutely crucial that we make at least one signing before the deadline.
After Fournier was sent packing I just accepted that we ain't going to be bringing anyone in I know we are only a few points from top of the league by I can't honestly see us doing anything about that in the next run of games I accepted that we'd be a 5th place team this season any higher than that is a bonus.
Returning from injury is one thing, being match fit and at peak performance is another. Remains to be seen how effective Coughler and Jardine will be, if they return, and for how long.
Baffles me how Giants and Steelers can be so proactive about changing up their rosters at the slightest sign of players underperformed, or players injured. They are serious about pushing to win something this season.
This is another year where our Club seems to limp on and struggle at the most important part of the season, living in the hope that our injured players will finally recover.
Our Club claims to be competitive, they come within sniffing distance of the finishing line...only to fall at the last hurdle because the team is fatigued or shortbenched or not good enough.
The implication is that some help is going to be found but what does that mean. The youngsters from the Pitbulls? A new import?
