Cardiff Devils’ forward Leigh Salters has confirmed his retirement from the sport.
Salters enjoyed three successful seasons in the Elite League with Nottingham Panthers, Braehead Clan and the Devils, averaging a point per game from over 170 appearances.
He won the Challenge Cup with the Panthers in 2014 and added a Gardiner Conference title with the Clan in 2015. Last season Salters helped the Devils to the Erhardt Conference crown.
