Former Prince Albert Raiders captain Reece Vitelli has made the jump to pro hockey.

The product of Winnipeg, MB has signed a one-year deal with the Tucson Roadrunners of the AHL, the affiliate team of the NHL’s Arizona Coyotes.

Vitelli attended Coyotes prospect and training camp this past summer after netting 51 points (25G, 26A) last season with the Raiders. He also attended the same camps back in the summer of 2021.
