6th year left wing Kyle Jean(71) decides to head back overseas for 2017/2018 after a pair of successful seasons with Idaho Steelheads.
In 130 ECHL regular season and playoff games he scored 28 goals and 53 assists with a 0 rating and 298 shots on net.
A month into the new calendar he signs with Ritten/Renon of the AlpsHL, where when he arrives should literally start exploding the scoresheet.
If that happens, we’ll see where hockey takes the 27-year old next.
Kyle Jean(7) Connecticut Whale
Undrafted New York Rangers‘ rookie prospect, center Kyle Jean(7) got his pro career off to a good start.
He scored his first goal on a penalty shot and added an assist in what was unfortunately a losing 6-4 effort by his team, Connecticut Whale on opening night of the 2012/2013 AHL season.
The 22-year old is signed to a 2-year entry level deal and with his 6’4″ 203 lbs. frame has the muscle to step right into plays and push opposing players around in pursuit of the puck.
He showed enough tenacity and grit to get the job done in preseason, so it was no surprise seeing him on the ice for the Whale’s first game of the year.
