Guildford have brought back Canadian forward Ian Watters for a fourth season.

https://guildfordflames.com/watters_returns

The left winger has been an alternate captain in the three seasons he has been at the Spectrum, and posts 99 goals for 184 points in 185 regular season games for the Flames.

His signing leaves the Flames with one import spot left to fill.

Apparently instead of an import, which seems quite risky.

I get the Cardiff move, because O'Connor is import quality, but Myers isn't.

Maybe it gives them options in the future.

He certainly isn’t anymore, was clear in the Elite Series that his legs were long gone.

Good experienced head to have around the team & in the face-off circle but not a player I’d have been interested in re-signing.
