Ryan Donato signs two-year deal with Bruins after starring for U.S. in Olympics

Left wing Ryan Donato, who starred for Team USA at last month's Pyeongchang Winter Games, has signed with the Boston Bruins and will be eligible to play Monday night against the Columbus Blue Jackets.

Donato, 21, is a 2014 second-round draft pick of Boston and the son of former Bruin and current Harvard coach Ted Donato. He signed a two-year entry-level contract.

Donato tied for the lead in goals among all Olympians with five goals in five games and led Team USA with six points.

As a junior, Donato led Harvard with 26 goals and 43 points in 29 games this past season and is a finalist for the Hobey Baker Award as the NCAA's top player.
