The Providence Bruins have signed former Friars captain Kyle MacKinnon to a one-year contract according to the Providence Journal.
The 23-year-old player from Walnut, California finished his senior year on a high note, scoring 14 goals and 9 assists in 34 games. He was invited to skate with the Providence Bruins last year after the Friars' season had ended, scoring a goal and assisting on three others in five games with the baby B's.
MacKinnon is a center who is listed at 5'11" and 185 pounds and he has a left handed shot. The former captain will step in to the Bruins' system with a chance to immediately contribute.
With the Boston Bruins winning the Cup, there will undoubtedly be a trickle down effect that will increase attendance in Providence this season at the Dunkin' Donuts Center and it will be great to see if a fellow Friar can take advantage of this opportunity.
