Ottawa, Ont. – The Ottawa 67’s announced, today, that they have received a commitment from 2021 seventh-round draft pick defenceman Bradley Horner.
“Bradley is a strong skating, two-way defenceman, who has earned opportunities to play consistently and in important situations with Hawkesbury over the last 18 months,” said 67’s Assistant General Manager and Director of Scouting Jan Egert. “We are excited that he has decided to continue his development with the 67’s.”
A native of Vankleek Hill, Ontario, Horner was selected 131st overall by the Barber Poles in the 2021 Ontario Hockey League Priority Selection. The 17-year-old has spent the last two seasons with the Hawkesbury Hawks (CCHL); posting two goals, and nine assists, for 11 points in 16 games, during the 2022-23 season.
Horner was invited to Team Canada East’s selection camp for the the 2022 World Junior A Challenge, but was unable to participate due to injury.
