1980/81 Layton Eratt 1981/82 Layton Eratt, Paul Fothergill 1982/83 Dave Welch, Mark Strongman, Tim Heron 1983/84 Dave Welch 1984/85 Layton Eratt 1985/86 Layton Eratt 1986/87 Layton Eratt 1987/88 Dave Phillips, Richard Stevenson, Matt Flint 1988/89 John Hobson 1989/90 Keith Stewart 1990/91 John Churchill 1995/96 Robert Worthington 1996/97 Jeff Hoad 1999/00 Marty Flichel 2000/01 Daryl Lavoie 2001/02 Claude Savoie 2003/04 Marc Levers 2004/05 Jan Krulis, James Cooke, Rhys McWilliam
Another number that has been passed around bit.
In the early days Layton Eratt made the number his own. Layton was a top guy who always bust a gut for us. He left after a couple of seasons but came back to claim his place in history by scoring the overtime winner against Fife in the 1986 Norwich Union Trophy final, our first trophy in the modern era. In another spooky coincidence, ten seasons later another no. 18, Jeff Hoad, scored an equally memorable goal after God knows how many periods of overtime in the British Championship semi final to get us past Ayr and into the final.
Honourable mentions too to Dave Welch, a wonderful skater remembered fondly for his man-of-the-match marking job on Gary Stefan, which completely snuffed out one of the most dangerous forwards in the country at that time, and to the present incumbent Super Blaz.
