The club also signed forward Ryan McGregor out of the Ontario Hockey League (OHL) on Thursday. Sucese, 23, is Penn State's all-time leading goal scorer with 61 tallies in 147 games. He was nearly a point-per-game player during his tenure with the Nittany Lions, registering 140 points in his collegiate career. The 5-foot-9, 175-pound Sucese led Penn State in scoring this season, his senior campaign, with 11 goals and 38 points in 34 games. Sucese's signing comes just one day after the Coyotes agreed to a three- year deal with McGregor on Thursday. McGregor, 21, served as captain for the Sarnia Sting in the Ontario Hockey League (OHL) and recorded 27 goals and 68 points in 52 games this season. During his first season with the Sting in 2015-16, he was a teammate of current Coyotes defenseman Jakob Chychrun. McGregor was originally drafted in 2017 by the Toronto Maple Leafs, but the sixth-round choice was not signed before the June 1, 2019 deadline and thus was free to sign with any club. Regardless of whether the NHL or AHL will resume play this season, both McGregor and Sucese are likely ticketed to start their professional careers with the Tucson Roadrunners next season.
