Ryan Donato named ECAC player of the year

Give a pat on the back to the Boston Bruins' scouting department, as prospect Ryan Donato has been recognized as the Eastern College Athletic Conference player of the year.

In his third season at Harvard, Donato leads the Crimson with 26 goals and 15 assists across 28 games.

Donato was also part of Team USA at the PyeongChang 2018 Olympics, where he notched a team-leading six points in five games.

The Boston native was selected 56th overall by his hometown Bruins in 2014.
