The Braves enter tonight's contest tied with the Hawkesbury Hawks for sixth overall with 25 games to go before playoffs

The Brockville Braves have welcomed back forward Kimani Eccleston after a brief hiatus with the OHL's Sudbury Wolves and the NOJHL's Timmins Rock.

In the past two seasons with the Braves, he registered a combined 36 points in 76 games, and thanked the Jr. A club for bringing him back by potting two goals in his return to lead the Braves to a 5-1 win over Cornwall last Friday (Jan. 2).

With three goals in two games, Eccleston was named the CCHL's third star of the week. He says it feels great to be back and contributing right away.

He expects a good game tonight against the Renfrew Wolves.

The Braves enter tonight's contest tied with the Hawkesbury Hawks for sixth overall with 25 games to go before playoffs.

Puck drop is 7:30 at the Brockville Memorial Centre.
