LoVecchio Leaves WMU
CHN Staff Report
The Boston Bruins have signed Western Michigan junior left wing Jeff LoVecchio to an Amateur Tryout Agreement (ATO). He has reported to Providence of the AHL. LoVecchio gives up his one remaining year of eligibility.
LoVecchio, 22, had 35 goals and 73 points in 113 games for the Broncos in three seasons. Western Michigan's season ended last weekend with a CCHA first-round playoff series loss. His most productive offensive campaign came as a sophomore, scoring 19 goals, dishing out 15 assists and collecting 34 points, all career-bests.
A native of Chesterfield, Missouri, LoVecchio was named a finalist for the CCHA Defensive Forward of the Year Award in 2006-07. The nod came one year after the former WMU captain was named the team's Klop Rookie of the Year.
