Cardiff Devils have added an 11th import player top their Elite League roster for 2019-20.
Defenceman Bryce Reddick is returning for his third season with Devils.
Reddick was Andrew Lord’s coaches player of the year after his debut season in Cardiff and Devils head coach says: “Bryce is a true competitor, which shows game in and game out. He plays with such passion and love for the game.
“He is a student of the game, constantly working to improve.
“His skating ability is another great asset and he has learned to use it in all areas, both offensively and defensively. Bryce has developed into a great all-around defenceman and can be used in any situation.
“It’s been fun watching his progress here in Cardiff and he has quietly become a huge part of the second wave of our core group alongside guys like Louis, Fournier and Pope.”
Last season Bryce set a career best 11 goals and 33 assists for a 44 points total in 71 games, including four power play goals.
He finished as the second highest scoring defencemen on the Devils team behind Gleason Fournier and fifth overall in D-men scoring across the league.
The 29-year-old made the move to Cardiff in 2017 after a season in Denmark with the Aalborg Pirates and has won four trophies (one league title, two play-off titles and a conference title) in Devils colours.
He was born in Winnipeg during 1989, where his father Eldon ‘Pokey’ Reddick was playing for the Winnipeg Jets in the NHL.
Reddick played his university hockey at Michigan Tech where he was converted from a forward to a defenceman and turned pro with the Las Vegas Wranglers of the East Coast League before making the move to Europe in 2014.
He played in France, Norway and then Denmark before moving to Wales.
