Career overview
Kinkel began his career playing major junior hockey in Canada, for the Kitchener Rangers and Kingston Frontenacs, before making a move into the ECHL with the Pensacola Ice Pilots. He then moved up to the American Hockey League with the Houston Aeros for a season and a half, before returning to the ECHL.
