Cardiff Devils Confirmed Signings & Departures 2017/18
Don't forget Faryna. Absolutely ridiculous that we have a guy like that on our 3rd line!!!
I'm going to go against the grain slightly and hope our final signing is a replacement for Hervato. As good as Brine did I always felt we lacked a player with that extra oomph that Hervato could give. Faryna will add it too obviously but I'd love us to sign a real speedy fore-checker/ agitator. Similar to Michel and dare I say it Lloyd.

I've mentioned before that Piggsie brings so much to the dressing room, you can't help but like the guy!
This decision makes total sense, but to me, this reads that he is just here as injury cover and to be there in case anyone gets complacent. Which is totally fair enough! Let's make it clear that Piggsie as good as he is, isn't at the standard to occupy a full time over 23 spot with regular minutes (due to this rule). But he is a local guy, with a great attitude and awesome work ethic who is happy to have such a limited role on the team. An unsung hero in a way because he will happily do a job a lot of others wouldn't with no complaints.
I'm glad he's back cause he's top, and to be honest, I love watching him play. If I had the choice between Piggsie and CJ taking everything into account, I much prefer piggsie's style of play!

There was always going to be space for Piggott and it makes sense for Lord to have signed him. As Red Mist has already correctly stated, it is most unlikely he will get a regular spot on the team, he will be used as and when necessary for injuries. No one has ever doubted his energy and enthusiasm when icing, it was always a case of 'there are better brits out there'. He is obviously well respected within the dressing room and his love of the club is bound to rub off on others.
It makes total sense to sign him, his off ice career is in Cardiff and it would have been a huge decision on his part to play anywhere else unless he could combine his work with ice hockey, staying with the Devils suits both him and the club.
