He most recently played for the Rochester Americans in the American Hockey League (AHL). Randell was selected by the Boston Bruins in the sixth round (176th overall) of the 2009 NHL Entry Draft.

Playing career

As a youth, Randell played in the 2004 Quebec International Pee-Wee Hockey Tournament with a minor ice hockey team from Brampton.

Drafted by the Belleville Bulls in the first round (14th overall) of the 2009 Ontario Hockey League (OHL) Priority Selection, Randell played 267 games in the OHL with the Belleville Bulls and Kitchener Rangers, registering a total of 68 goals and 43 assists for 111 points, and 392 penalty minutes. Randell appeared in the 2008 Memorial Cup with Belleville. Following the 2008–09 OHL season, Randell was selected by the Boston Bruins in the sixth round of the 2009 NHL Entry Draft, and on April 18, 2011, the Boston Bruins signed Randell to a three-year entry-level contract. On June 18, 2015, the Bruins signed Randell to a one-year contract extension.

During the 2015–16 season, he played in Boston. He made his NHL debut on October 14, 2015, against the Colorado Avalanche and also scored his first goal, which was a game-winning goal. He ended the season with six points (all goals), five fights and re-signed on July 1, 2016, with the Bruins on a one-year deal.

On July 1, 2017, Randell left the Bruins as a free agent to sign a one-year, two-way deal with the Ottawa Senators.
