MK Lightning are continuing to add to their roster by re-signing Andre Smulter and snapping up youngster Jacob Heron.
Smulter returns to Planet Ice for his third year to once again bolster Lightning’s attacking line.
And his signature is one that coach Nick Poole was desperate to capture, he said: “We are thrilled to bring Andre back as he brings so much to our side.
“He is a good goal scorer but more importantly he is a leader in our changing room.
“He has taken the English game to his heart and has many of the spirited qualities that has endeared him to our fans. He constantly comes up with big goals when needed and we will be looking for more of that this coming season. I know Andre is very excited to be back and will be coming back early to prepare for the coming season.”
To go along side Smulter’s experience Lightning have added the highly rated Heron to their squad.
Heron stared for MK’s Under-18s side that won the Southern League last year.
Poole added: “This is a big year for Jacob and I know he is looking forward to the challenges ahead. He is a gutsy forward who can provide offence and will see more action this coming season.”
