Rookie forward David Civitarese(7) will start the first full season of his pro career with ECHL’s Reading Royals.
He appeared in 10 games at the end of last season with Hershey Bears, signed to an ato after finishing up his college playing career. The 6’2″ 211 pounder ended up scoring his first professional hockey goal, his only point in the run.
Entering 2012/2013 as an undrafted free agent, he signs a one-year AHL deal to return to Hershey Bears for his first campaign.
The 23-year old attended their training camp but was recently reassigned after one exhibition game.
He was never much of a scorer in college but that could change.
