Borowiecki Re-Signs with Ottawa

Another Clarkson University Hockey alumnus has recently negotiated a contract with a National Hockey League club as Mark Borowiecki has accepted a two-year agreement with the Ottawa Senators.

A defenseman, Borowiecki, 23, played in six NHL games with the Senators in 2012-13, recording 18 penalty minutes and a plus-1 rating. The 2013-14 season will represent a two-way contract, while the following season is a one-way agreement.

The Ottawa native also recorded four goals and 10 assists along with 157 penalty minutes and a plus-21 rating in 53 games with the American Hockey League's Binghamton Senators this past year. He served as team captain from April 8 through the remainder of the regular season and playoffs.

"I'm really happy," Borowiecki told the team's website. "I can't really say how happy I am. You know, at this point in my career this is the place I want to be and I want to be a part of this organization and it's really nice to get that deal done."

A fifth-round pick of the Senators in the 2008 NHL Draft (139th overall), Borowiecki was a member of the B-Sens team that won the Calder Cup championship in 2011.

Borowiecki is the first Ottawa native ever drafted by the Senators.

A standout on the blueline at Clarkson from 2008-11, Borowiecki skated in 99 career games for the Golden Knights recording 32 points on 12 goals and 20 assists. He served as the Green and Gold's captain for the 2010-11 campaign before forgoing his senior year in order to pursue a professional hockey career.
