INDEPENDENCE, Missouri – Missouri Mavericks’ Head
Coach Scott Hillman announced Monday the Central Hockey League
(CHL) club has signed former St. Lawrence forward Simon Watson for
the team’s inaugural season.
Watson, 29 (4/3/80), is entering his fourth season in the CHL and
spent the last two seasons with the Rocky Mountain Rage. The
Waterloo, Ontario native has averaged 50 points in each of his
first three seasons scoring 67 goals and 83 assists in 187 games
played. The 6-foot-0, 182-pound forward has 20-plus goals in each
season and set a career-high in 2008-09 with 30 assists with the
Rage.
“Simon has been a very consistent offensive threat scoring
nearly 70 goals in three years in this league,” said Hillman.
“He is a highly skilled and crafty center that will be looked
upon to score big goals in big games.”
The Mavericks now have 14 players signed for the team’s
upcoming inaugural season.
