Rising junior defenseman Jack Rathbone (Harvard) has left college hockey to sign an entry-level contract with the Vancouver Canucks, according to The Hockey News.
Rathbone, a 5-11, 190-pound blueliner from West Roxbury, Mass., finished fourth in team scoring this season for the Crimson with seven goals and 24 assists for 31 points in 28 games. In two seasons and 60 career NCAA contests played with Harvard, he collected 14 goals and 38 assists for 52 points to go with 22 penalty minutes. As a freshman, he helped Harvard to the 2019 NCAA Tournament.
The son of former Boston College forward Jason Rathbone (BC'92), Jack Rathbone prepped with both the Cape Cod Whalers and the Dexter School prior to skating for Harvard. A two-time captain at Dexter, he was drafted in the fourth round (95th overall) by the Canucks in the 2017 NHL Draft.
