After missing time with an injury, Kerins has quickly found his rhythm again lately. In the first week of April, he recorded three goals and four assists in just two games, earning AHL Player of the Week honours.
“Feels good playing games again, especially at this level,” Kerins told the media on Tuesday.
His mindset heading into the game is straightforward.
“Just go out there and play, show what I can do, and have fun doing it.”
Kerins has appeared in seven NHL games in his career, registering four assists.
