The Cardiff Devils confirmed Cody Donaghey as the latest import player to join the defensive unit for 2023-24.
Last season, the 27 year-old Canadian started with HK Nitra of the top Slovakian League before moving to Fehervar of the IceHL where he played alongside former Devils star Gleason Fournier.
He spent the 2021-22 season with Czech Extraliga side Rytiri Kladno and spent the 2020-21 year in Denmark splitting his time between Odense and Aalborg.
Donaghey has a a bomb of a shot and that will help on a powerplay unit that struggled the second half of last season. He skates well and likes to join the rush, but doesn’t sacrifice his defensive duties.
He will wear number 44 for the Devils this season.
