Career
Kelly was born in Abbotsford, British Columbia. Kelly spent five seasons in the WHL, including three and a half with the Saskatoon Blades. In 2001-02, he tallied 86 points (39 goals, 47 assists) in 72 games for the Blades, which ranked him tenth in the league.[1]
The 2002-03 season saw him skate for Swedish side IF Troja/Ljungby.
Upon his return from Europe, Kelly spent three years playing on five teams in three leagues, AHL, UHL and ECHL, before bringing his game back to Europe: In the course of the 2006-07 season, Kelly featured for three clubs: Eishockey-Club Olten of Switzerland, EHC Linz of Austria and Val Pusteria of Italy.[2]
Kelly embarked on a three-year stint with German second-division club Bietigheim Steelers in 2008 and would make 129 DEL2 appearances in three seasons, amassing a total of 167 points (64 goals, 103 assists).[3] In 2009-10, he received Player of the Year honors.[4][5] That attracted the attention of German top-tier side Krefeld Pinguine, who signed Kelly for the 2010-11 Deutsche Eishockey Liga (DEL) season. He moved to fellow DEL club DEG Metro Stars for the following campaign,[6] which was hampered by a knee injury sustained in October 2011.[7]
The 2012-13 season saw him return to IF Troja/Ljungby of Sweden,[8] where he had signed his first overseas contract ten years earlier. Kelly then signed a deal with the Ravensburg Towerstars for the 2013-14 campaign, which turned out to be a very successful one: He scored 32 goals on the season to go along with 58 assists for a shared top spot in the DEL2 scoring ranks.
Kelly then returned to the Bietigheim Steelers for the 2014-15 season[9] and in June 2015, had his contract renewed for 2015-16.[10] In the 2015-16 season, he led the DEL2 in scoring with 85 points[11] and for the second time was named DEL2 Player of the Year.[12]
