About Tim Watters
- Timothy John Watters (born July 25, 1959) is a Canadian retired ice hockey defenceman. Tim Watters was a rarity in the National Hockey League (NHL), a physical defenceman who stood under 6 feet tall and under 200 pounds.
- He played in 2 Olympics and well over 700 NHL games, quietly playing a solid though unspectacular role from 1981 through 1995 with the Winnipeg Jets and Los Angeles Kings, two teams that didn't enjoy much success or fanfare.
- Not having the size to out-muscle opponents, Watters learned to be in perfect position and angled shooters out of harm's way.
- He read the oncoming rushes very well, and thanklessly cut off passing lanes and blocked shots.
- He learned to tie up players' sticks and was one of the few modern players to master the hip check. He retired from the NHL as a player after the 1995 season.
- He served as an assistant coach for the Boston Bruins during the 1996 season, and as head coach for the NCAA Division I Michigan Tech Huskies from 1996–97 – 1999–2000. Watters currently resides in Phoenix, Arizona, where he works in the commercial real estate business.
- He also coaches youth hockey in nearby Tempe.
