Good on Walton if he wants to help Devils in whatever way he can!!
But release him from the roster and get a new player to strengthen the squad is a no brainier.
Got to have cover so why not
Would have to disagree with you there sorry and agree with some of the other comments.
The bigger picture is we don't (and probably never will) have the biggest wage structure. As such we have to offer a much better total package to players if we want to attract and keep the best we can.
Leaving them high and dry if they get injured when they are only on one year contracts doesn't put us in a great light and build team spirit.
As an aside I don't know what the deal is with insurance and how that works at this level of hockey.
Also, can anyone confirm if the import limit is for the actual match day squad or for the club as a whole? If it's just the match day squad, surely it becomes a financial decision if we want to bring a new player on board.
