Undrafted rookie center Kenny Hausinger(10) graduated UMass-Lowell Riverhawks a year ago, but decided to not pursue a contract in what was a very crowded crop after agreeing to terms with Worcester Railers, who ultimately had to opt out of 2020/2021. .
He dips a toe into the mix for 2021/2022 and signs a 1-year deal with Reading Royals.
The 5’9″ 195 lbs. forward has always put up decent numbers through college pretty much averaging 10 goals and 10 assists per session.
He was also solid through a pair of junior seasons, going for more than point-per-game production in the NAHL for Odessa Jackalopes, then potting 16 goals and 32 assists in 60 USHL games with Des Moines Buccaneers, which is where he was selected for college.
The 26-year old from Anchorage, AK could do very well in the ECHL.
In his 1st year, he comes away scoring 12 goals with 28 assists for 40 points in 57 games with a +12 rating, then adds another 7 points in the playoffs.
For 2022/2023, he decides to sign with rivals Norfolk Admirals, which could challenge his ability to connect, but also give them the 1st piece in their comeback.
After a goal and 4 assists in 11 games with a lowly -12 rating on a team that has only 2 wins, a trade to Wichita Thunder gives him a totally new lease on life, where he should be able to connect more effectively with scoresheet.
GO KENNY GO ! Welcome to Reading we appreciate having you!
