Jeff Pierce joins the Devils!
- Thread starter gandl
- Start date
What's so wrong with J.B's opinion ? I think he's got it wrong myself, as stated, no one knew what Pelle would do last year ( can't see him repeating it with Belfast as other teams are more aware of him now, which could mean someone else on his team may be the stand out scorer) but Pierce comes with good recommendations from fellow players so that means so much more than either mine or anyone else's opinions tbh. So, let's allow j.b his opinion, and hope he is proven wrong.
Nothing wrong with an opinion Osh. Everyone is entitled to one.
In J.B's case, I am fed up of reading comments that debilerately play down signings, or question how much we are spending, but then respond with 'blinkers' on about their own team (that is if the Blaze are actually J.B's team - I have my doubts).
Tried getting decent debate but it just seems the poster is intent on disagreeing without seeing the point.
Anyways, back to Pierce..... I'm definitely excited by this signing, and considering that 3-4 weeks ago it was looking bleak as to whether we would have a team, i'm actually starting to believe that we could be up there competing for top 3 again.

Very promising looking signing. 
Although there's no videos of him on youtube so i'm pretty sure that means he doesn't actually exist.
He does exist http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qlN0cbhCl0g - looks like similar size pad!!
Also, looking at Odessa website he was being coached by Bob Carolgees!

He's the latest 'Pierce' of G's master plan... sorry couldn't resist!

Oh dear, J.B. You should know by now that who a player is partnered with can have as much influence on statistics as his own individual skill. :roll:
If a pairing clicks, the line will be effective.
Jeff is joining the Devils via the MBA programme and will have a particular role to fulfill on the team. Very excited to see how he's going to contribute, particularly having played with Chris Frank before. Well done to G and Franny for securing another exciting player to the roster.
Welcome to The Devils and Cardiff, Jeff.

Welcome to The Devils and Cardiff, Jeff.
The thing that impressed me is his point production. Compared to Pelle, they are both around the point a game mark at CHL level (with Pierce slightly ahead - even in his slowest season) and both are almost 50/50 goals and assists.
Very similar stats. Almost identical. With good setup men, a larger body may do even better than Pelle, although Jon was very strong on the puck.
If we saw a Matzka esq - and how I hope the Matzka rumor is true - play making center I can see that line being equally productive, even if it is Max and the centre poaching more goals.
