It’s episode 6 of The Hockey News On The ’O’ Podcast. Hosts Brock Otten and Tony Ferrari discuss the Ontario Hockey League every week, bringing you the best coverage of the OHL from two of the baldest and brightest in the game.
This week, Brock and Tony go through the ‘Three Stars of the Week’ highlighted by Jorian Donovan’s hat trick from the blueline, and the duo also discuss the Tampa Bay Lightning’s lone prospect in the OHL, Roman Schmidt.
With NHL draft rankings starting to be released, the guys talk about their top five OHL draft eligibles, debating the merits of Luca Pinelli, Colby Barlow, Cal Ritchie, and Quentin Musty among others.
Brock starts it off with his top five, which kicks off the debate on why Colby Barlow of the Owen Sound Attack is first.
Then, Tony gives his top five, with Luca Pinelli of the Ottawa 67’s at the top.
Tony and Brock also dive into some locks and dark horses for Team Canada’s world juniors squad and more.
