Bruins Recall Carter Camper
Bruins general manager Peter Chiarelli announced on Feb. 20 that the team is recalling Carter Camper from the Providence Bruins. Camper will join the team in St. Louis for practice on Feb. 21 and perhaps for the game against the Blues on Feb. 22.
Camper has had a very good season with the Providence Bruins, tallying 14 goals and 24 assists in 53 games. Not only does he lead the entire team in overall points and assists, he also had a hat trick recently against the Connecticut Whale. He was also the Providence Bruins’ sole representative at the AHL All-Star Game on Jan. 29.
His stellar career started with Miami University in Oxford, Ohio. He spent four years as a RedHawk and went to the NCAA tournament during all of them, including two Frozen Four appearances. He was nominated for the Hobey Baker Award in his senior year, was named Scholar-Athlete of the Year and had 69 goals and 114 assists in 156 total college games. During his college career, he was called up to Providence three times.
Perhaps Camper’s recall is because the team wants a 13th forward to join the road trip, or maybe they hope to inject a little new blood into the lagging offense. Either way, this is Camper’s first AHL-to-NHL recall. He became part of the team as a free agent on April 7, 2011.
