Mo And Mo Join Forces With Devils Past And Present

Cardiff Devils past and present are back in action at Ice Arena Wales on Friday (7.30pm).

Scottish winger Craig Moore, signed from Elite League rivals Dundee Stars, will ice in his first game at Ice Arena Wales since making his switch from Dundee.

The 22-year-old joins new Devils team-mates Jake Morissette, Mark Richardson, Josh Batch and Thomas Murdy in the Pro Allstars legends game.
