Nottingham Panthers have signed former NHL forward Cameron Mann as their final import to their roster.

The 32-year-old has played 93 games in the world's top league, scoring 14 goals and contributing 10 assists.

Coach Corey Neilson told BBC Radio Nottingham: "He is definitely a goalscorer and we're delighted to have Cameron and his family.

"He has scored at every level he's played at and he is really excited to be coming to Nottingham."

Mann was selected by the Boston Bruins in the NHL 4th round draft of 1995 and made his debut for the team in the 1997/98 season.

He made 89 appearances for Boston over four seasons, but spent most of his time in the American Hockey League with their affiliate side Providence Bruins, scoring at a point a game.

In 2001 he was traded to the Dallas organisation but never played for their NHL side, and in the 2002/03 season he played four games for Nashville.

The Manitoba-born forward has since been plying his trade in Europe in the top leagues of Germany and Finland.
