Raymond Thomas Kinsella (January 27, 1911 – April 29, 1996) was a Canadian professional ice hockey defenceman for the Ottawa Senators of the National Hockey League from 1930–1931. He was born in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada.
Playing career
Kinsella was playing in the Ottawa City Senior Hockey League when the Senators signed him as a free agent in 1931. Kinsella played the rest of the 1930–31 season for the Ottawa Senators. It was his only year in the NHL. Starting in the following season, he played three seasons in the Can-Am Hockey League, finishing his professional career with the AHA Tulsa Oilers in 1934–35. When the Ottawa Senators NHL franchise moved to St. Louis, the owners set up the Ottawa Senators senior men's amateur team. After his professional career ended, Kinsella returned to Ottawa and played for the senior Senators.
After hockey
Kinsella, one of three surviving Ottawa Senators in 1992, was part of the opening night ceremonies in 1992 for the current Ottawa Senators. Ray's brothers Gerry and Ollie Kinsella also played ice hockey.
