Nottingham Panthers coach Corey Neilson has secured the services of Swedish forward Johan Molin for a second successive season.

The winger scored at a point a game last season and weighed in with 30 goals in the process.

Neilson told BBC Radio Nottingham: "Molin is a quality forward and I'm sure he'll score loads of goals with the players he'll have around him."

Molin's move means Neilson has only to sign a netminder to complete his squad.

Neilson added: "He's a small guy but he's got so much strength and power and speed and we need that in our line-up.

"His footwork is exceptional. If you get the puck to him at the right spot at the right time, he's gone, there's no way you can catch him."

Neilson replaced Mike Ellis as Panthers coach at the end of the season.
