Head coach Andrew Lord leaves Cardiff Devils for North America
Cardiff Devils head coach Andrew Lord has announced he is to leave the club after seven years.
The most successful coach in the club's history said he is returning to North America to coach an as yet unnamed club.
Lord won two Elite League titles, the last two Playoff Championships, three Conference titles and two Challenge Cups in 6 seasons.
He was hired when new owners took over the Devils in the summer of 2014.
When the 2019/20 season was cut short due to the coronavirus pandemic, the Devils were first place in the league and looking to win their third title in four years.
Managing Director Todd Kelman said it's "hard to put into words" the impact Lord has had on the Devils.
