The OMHA is extremely proud of its 15 graduates who were chosen in the 2016 NHL Draft over the weekend and who are now one step closer to their NHL dreams. The two goalies, six defencemen and seven forwards look to make an impact in the next phase of their hockey careers.
Hockey teaches our youth character, respect and commitment while players enjoy spending time with friends and skill-building at the same time. We wish all of our graduates the best of luck in their futures on and off the ice.
