One more time, Mark Borowiecki made the short drive to Scotiabank Place to keep living his biggest hockey dream. 

It's the building in which the Senators made the Ottawa native a fifth-round pick (139th overall) in the 2008 NHL Entry Draft. Almost three years later, it also became the place where the hard-nosed blueliner inked his first National Hockey League contract. 

With a two-year entry-level contract and amateur tryout offer now in hand, the 21-year-old Borowiecki now will make his way to the American Hockey League and the Binghamton Senators, where he'll officially get his pro hockey career underway. In the process, he'll surrender his final year of eligibility at Clarkson University in Potsdam, N.Y.
