The 19-year-old will head to college in 2027-28.
As NCAA signing season carries on, Saint John Sea Dogs forward Alexander Donovan has announced his commitment to Providence College, via his Instagram.
Donovan, 19, was previously committed to Denver, but re-opened his options and now will head to Providence, expected to happen in the 2027-28 season.
The Darien, CT, native is coming off a strong rookie QMJHL season with Saint John, scoring 53 (25+28) points in 63 games in a top-six and power play role.

Alongside star Alexis Joseph, Saint John has acquired forwards such as Jamie Glance, Oliver Ozogany and William Yared to really bolster the roster, as well as Samuel Meloche in goal.
Donovan will hope to shine alongside this roster before heading down to college as a 20-year-old.
