ELMIRA, N.Y. - February 5, 2013 - The Elmira Jackals announced today that defenseman Kyle Bushee has returned to the club from his loan to the Binghamton Senators of the American Hockey League.
Bushee, 27, was loaned to the Jackals' affiliate for its weekend trip to St. John's Newfoundland. Bushee did not dress for the B-Sens who went winless on the trip. It was his second call up to the AHL this season after appearing in two games for the Norfolk Admirals during his stay from January 12 to January 18.
