IMHO Ben blew it with us a few years ago, he left the "sinking ship" and I'll get flamed no doubt but if a player leaves when the going is tough......I know all the arguments, short career, physical game etc: etc: but.
I agree with Mazza to a certain extent, however, my reason for not being bothered about signing Davies was more to do with his perceived attitude after he left the club midway through the 2010/11 season.
The word coming out of the club then was he was unhappy with his limited ice time but Gerald Adams couldn't guarantee what he wanted as Sam Smith was having his 'breakout' year and so many other Devils players were having a 'career year'.
He subsequently left to drop down to play for the Bison. The club were reportedly disappointed with his attitude as they thought that as a teenager he would be better served to learn his trade from training, playing and being
around players like Weller, Macrea and Matzka etc.
All water under the bridge now but I still think that maybe, Ben thinks he is better than he actually is!
Sometimes you gotta take 'attitude over aptitude ' and you can fault the attitude of CJ and Piggott.
