Timberlake Gets Another Opportunity in Providence
PROVIDENCE, RI - The Providence Bruins, in their 19th season in the American Hockey League, today announced that they have added former Brown forward Devin Timberlake from the ECHL's Reading Royals. Timberlake was signed by the P-Bruins to a Professional Tryout Agreement.
Timberlake, 25, is in his first full professional season following four years at Brown and a brief stint in Providence to close out the 2009-10 campaign. He has spent the entire season in Reading after joining the P-Bruins in training camp, and he has chipped in seven goals and six assists for 13 points in 30 games for the Royals.
Last year, the right wing signed an Amateur Tryout Agreement with Providence on Mar. 26, 2010 and scored two goals in his six AHL games. Prior, the Bears' co-captain enjoyed a career-year with personal-bests in games (37), points (25) and assists (20) as a senior, while also being named to his fourth straight ECAC All-Academic Team. Timberlake was also named the co-recipient of Brown's Patrick Jones Memorial Trophy for drive and enthusiasm.
Over his four seasons at Brown from 2006-10, the undrafted native of Port Alberni, British Columbia, suited up for 110 games with 61 points (19g, 42a) and 146 PIM.
