It was the 17th year of Ice Hockey played by the Guildford Flames and the second season under Paul Dixon as head coach. During the summer Dixon worked to improve the defensive line by shipping out Dominic Hopkins and Ben Johnson, replacing them with 17 year old Steven Lee whom had already played two seasons with Elite League side Hull, and bringing toughness to the team in the form of Mark Williams from Romford. Other departures included fringe player Ben Duggan who was replaced by Matt Hepburn from the juniors. The main talking point over the summer was the departure of long time top goal scorer Jozef Kohut, leaving the team with what many believed was a weak offence. After an indifferent start to the season with 3 wins and 3 losses, it was announced on the 9th October that the Flames would travel to Slovakia and take part in an exhibition against Extraliga side Poprad in a game opened by the Queen during her state visit to the country.. After a poor run of results in November and a multiple game ban for import Vaclav Zavoral, the decision was taken to sign Czech Martin Bouz.. A surprise departure was the main feature of January with Mark Williams leaving to pursue work commitments and to play closer to home with the Romford Raiders."@en .
