Hi All,

Here are some links to clips you might want to have a look at (I hope it's OK to post these here):

It would be possible to upload the entire game to ITV Local. Would many of you be interested in that? Please email us at wales@itvlocal.com and I'll be checking back here later.

Best wishes,

Those highlights look really really good, i missed the game on sunday so it was really handy to see that catch up. I'm not sure i would watch a full game but extended highlights would be something i would be interested in seeing, for Example a lot of people were talking about Peter Aubry's save in the first period so it would have been nice to have seen that in there.


All in all though a thoroughly professional effort and i'ed watch it every week if it was up.

well i would definately be interested in the full game, i cant get to as many games as i would like and to be able to watch it online would be great. That way i could try and avoid seeing the result and watch it afterwards.

This is a great service... and I'd like to echo what others have said - extended highlights would be great (maybe 2 options - 1) goals/hits/fights/saves (30 seconds) and 2) extended highlights (1 min+).

Local man, does this mean that ITV are going to start covering the Devils more on the evening news by showing highlights and interviews? It'd be a great opportunity for ITV to add some variety to their sport offering and it would give them a chance to be 1-up on BBC Wales news who only seem interested in rugby (even ahead of football!).

Thanks Local man, this is needed and would be similar to the Vipers TV service which is a great way to catch up on the action. Good quality, YES PLEASE!

Would prefer it if it was labelled/marketed as devil's tv, like the the vipers, as that will attract more viewership on search engines....

as a second best it is at least a step in the right direction....
