    Rumours & Offseason Nonsense 2025/26

    I think some people are being a bit harsh on MacWlliam and his commitment. I didn’t have any issues with that. He was solid, he was physical. If he didn’t care like some suggest then he wouldn’t have kept running his mouth off. He made more mistakes than I was expecting but I wouldn’t be...

    The live ones always had connection issues. Better to film it, edit it, upload it.

    Rumours & Offseason Nonsense 2025/26

    I'll predict: Perlini, Stoever, Caponi and Brandt.

    Rumours & Offseason Nonsense 2025/26

    Bit surprised we've not had a midweek signing. In fact I was half expecting at least two this week before the summit. So either we are going to get a bumper number of announcements at the Summit.. or.... the roster isn't complete yet and we will get some announcements post-Summit. Thompson...

    Fixtures and stampede

    One idea might be to play Clan on the Fri night and then Dundee/Fife on the Sun night so the fans still get that long weekend (and a free day on the Saturday) but we still only play two games?

    Helgesen’s PIMs suggest he can handle himself?

    But he did. He went through pre-season and quickly realised that he and his partner were going to struggle to settle in a different country with a different culture and language barrier. I actually respect someone for admitting early on that it’s not going to work. And I think his club would...

    Cardiff Devils Confirmed Signings & Departures 2025/26

    Us Devils fans are a funny lot. And I include myself in the following criticism. For years we’ve been calling for an out and out goalscorer. Sheffield had Legue. Nottingham had Clarke. Coventry had Calder. Then we get one in Sanford. And we start criticising his size, that he doesn’t score...

    Fixtures and stampede

    Just been tagged on Twitter by a Devils fan (@Devil_Dare99) who had the idea to ask Steve King about the Summit! They're aiming for Sunday 6th July and they've confirmed Thommo is going out there

    Fixtures and stampede

    Last year the Fixtures were released on 11th July, so we're likely to have 2 or so weeks more until them.

    Fixtures and stampede

    I had a look over previous years and pretty much every year the summit was held over the opening weekend of the Calgary Stampede. However, last year the video went live midweek. It might well be they held the summit over the weekend and then took a day or so to edit the video? IIRC last year's...

    Rumours & Offseason Nonsense 2025/26

    Going off on a tangent for a moment, it looks like the Calgary Stampede starts a week Friday so assuming we are following the process of the past seasons then we are likely to have the Owners Summit in two weeks time? I think we agreed that we are still waiting for a minimum of 8 signings plus...

    Rumours & Offseason Nonsense 2025/26

    I've seen a couple of people saying they would prefer Burman returned - so it's probably worth pointing out that when Burman joined Guildford he had never played Pro either. And he was joining from USports which is a lesser standard than the NCAA. Despite that, Burman had a great season with...

    Rumours & Offseason Nonsense 2025/26

    If it does turn out to be Stoever as rumoured then I would guess that as well as being a risk it might also be as others have suggested a cheaper option than Carruth with the money spent elsewhere on the lineup. I'd also imagine that it is a look to the future. We've tried to bring in young guys...

    Didn't Bowns lose less games to injury than Carruth?
