The 6-foot right-handed shot from Stratford, Ont. has played for the Owen Sound Attack the last four seasons where he set a team record as the highest-scoring defenseman in Owen Sound history with 168 points (21-147-168) in 236 regular season career games. Last year with Owen Sound, Sedley racked up career highs with nine goals and 54 assists for 63 points. Sedley appeared in 13 post-season matchups over his OHL tenure, tallying one goal and seven assists.
Sedley has participated in the last two Flyers Development Camps in the summer and also joined last season’s Rookie Camp and Flyers’ Training Camp which included an appearance at PPL Center in Philadelphia’s Rookie Series games last September against the New York Rangers.
The 21-year-old blueliner was originally selected by Owen Sound as a fourth round pick (70th overall) in the 2019 OHL Priority Selection.
