Providence, RI - The Providence Bruins, entering their 21st season in the American Hockey League, announced today that the Boston Bruins have reassigned three players to the South Carolina Stingrays (ECHL). The Providence Bruins also announced that they have released one player from his tryout agreement.

Forward Tyler Randell, defenseman Tommy Cross and goaltender Adam Morrison have been reassigned by Boston to the Stingrays.

Randell, Boston's sixth round pick (176th overall) in the 2009 NHL Entry Draft, split last season between Providence and Kitchener (OHL). In 30 games for Providence, the forward totaled two goals and 45 penalty minutes.
