Tonight's 3-2 win in Belfast gives them back to back Elite League titles, congratulations to them and our Devils Cageites (there are a couple).
Best team, and best organisation, in the league. Easily.

Yep, be more Cardiff. Some absolute beauties in their fanbase. Chuffed for them and what a turnaround from Ragan and BBT.

You guys are too nice. It’s making me suspicious....
I kid. Supporting this club is made easy by the fact that they are communicative both ways, they clearly know what they’re doing and I must say that Lordo really seems to be able to motivate these players to care not just about the hockey but about being a Cardiff Devil. We are very lucky.
It’s now going to be an interesting couple of weeks to see who gets who in the play-offs. I have a sneaking suspicion Dundee will just pop it.
I’ll be at the weekend, so if you guys are going to face either Steelers or Belfast I’d rather it be there, but either look like possibilities.

Well done Devils.......Best team by a country mile. Management who do what it takes and a coach who signs and motivates quality and winners. Backed by a great set of fans who deserve everything they're getting.

Can you make this statement about your fans and the club being 'at one'. I'd like the management in Nottingham to listen to that. Well done you for the title. At these present times we can only envy you. Want to get back to doing actual battle with you again and get to grips in combat but at this moment we don't have the ability.

They seem to have left us behind - well done to the best team in the league. They did well when they got Todd Kelman involved. Lessons to be learned.

Well done Devils, I bet Moran and Black are gutted. Why? I bet the Panthers made the biggest profit again (by a very long way) and that’s all those two care about. Well done Cardiff and I have to say that it’s been a lot better watching you guys this year than Nottingham too. Well done.

YOU are the best team in the league. Early in the season you swept all before you and most on this forum were saying "I love this team". What happened to them? Is it Corey's fault? Is it player conflict? I expected your squad to rip this league apart and was genuinely looking forward to seeing you play at the HOS. I'm convinced that the coaches of your team and mine are responsible for the mediocrity served up and wrongly marketed as ice hockey!

If it was on being showcased in Europe with scouts, opportunities etc or the long held supporters myth that it was the best pay in the EIHL. Something wasn’t just wrong it was a lot more wrong than previous seasons. Perhaps the pee was taken just a bit too far. Who knows. Good seats still available.

I'm convinced that the coaches of your team and mine are responsible for the mediocrity served up and wrongly marketed as ice hockey! Certainly looking at the CHL performances and the form in the first part of the season, things seem to be going well. Problems which had been identified had been sorted - such as goal tenders - 2 quality and a good UK back up - fitness regime - seemingly a bigger budget. There was cohesion early on -and that view was shared at the club -but it seemed to evaporate the longer the season went on. The tools were there to do the job and sadly I think there can only be one obvious conclusion. This collapse as the season has gone on has been a repetitive feature. Perhaps in the one off matches in the play offs something can be rescued - but I wouldn't bet on it. Tonights match is something most would be normally be excited about, but it almost seems like an uninteresting footnote to another disappointing season in the league.

As was always happy as long as an Erhardt team won this league. The hard way as regards fixtures.

Well done Cardiff. An example of what good ownership, coaching and a fanbase who the club appreciate can achieve. A country mile from the Nottingham Panthers organisation.
