The OMHA is very proud of its alumni who were chosen in the 2025 NHL Draft.
Player development during the formative years of a child's time in minor hockey is important in creating a long-term passion for the game. Making a positive experience for all players involved in the game helps build a lifelong love of hockey.
We wish all of our alumni the best of luck in their futures on and off the ice, no matter what level they play.
