Estevan native Brant Harris has found his new team.
The 24-year-old right winger signed with the East Coast Hockey League's Florida Everblades recently.
The Everblades are located in Estero, Fla.
Harris has spent the last four years with the University of Connecticut Huskies, tallying 52 goals and 112 points over his four-year collegiate career, including 26 points in 30 games last season. He also served as the team's captain.
Harris, a former Estevan Bruin, also played eight games with the American Hockey League's Bridgeport Sound Tigers on a professional tryout at the end of last season. He scored one goal and two assists.
Harris, who is listed at 6-foot-1 and 185 pounds, had told the Mercury his goal was to land an NHL contract this summer after attending the San Jose Sharks' development camp last summer and the Washington Capitals' camp the year before.
With the Everblades, Harris joins former Bruins teammate Kyle Stroh, who signed with Florida after posting 21 points last year with the Rapid City Rush of the Central Hockey League.
Harris played in preseason games against the Orlando Solar Bears on Friday and Saturday.
