Forward Kaden Pitre Commits To Penn State Men’s Hockey
North Bay Battalion forward Kaden Pitre has committed to Penn State men’s hockey, he announced on Instagram Saturday afternoon.
Pitre, a 20-year-old from Ontario, Canada, was drafted by the Tampa Bay Lightning in the sixth round of the 2024 NHL Draft, 181st overall. However, the Lightning did not sign him ahead of the June 1 draft reentry deadline.
