Chad Pietroniro returns for his first full season as a Devil.

Last year, he joined the Devils at the signing deadline in February, icing in the final 12 games of the season. 

He played both forward and defence and was often switching back and forth mid-game between the two positions.  His versatility and his no-nonsense style of play made him an instant fan favourite upon his arrival. 

Pietroniro holds an Italian passport and played four years in Italy then a season in France before returning to North America for the start of 2022-23 season.  Before turning pro, he played three seasons in the Qubec Majoy Junior League (QMJHL).
