Francesco Pinelli highlighted the LA Kings pipeline with three goals in three games last week for the Kitchener Rangers in the OHL.
Pinelli found the back of the net twice in the Kitchener Rangers’ 8-4 loss to the Windsor Spitfires Sunday evening. Out of all the prospects in the LA Kings system, Pinelli recorded three points which were the most for any prospect during the week.
