[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css=””]Vilho Vanhatalo brings a lot to the table.<\/span><\/p>\n

He\u2019s a big body, a former captain, has pro experience, is a two-time champion, an NHL draft pick, and now a member of the Ottawa 67\u2019s.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The 67\u2019s selected the Tampere, FIN, right winger with the 52nd overall pick in the 2026 CHL Import Draft. At 6-foot-4, he\u2019d be amongst the team\u2019s tallest players on last year\u2019s squad, only surpassed by Zach Houben and David Bedkowski, who both stand at 6-foot-6.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Vanhatalo, 18, is coming off a 19-point season with Tappara\u2019s Under-20 system, where he scored 10 goals and nine assists over 38 regular-season games.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The youngster would suit up for eight games and net an assist with the men\u2019s team, Tappara Tampere, which is partly owned by fellow Tampere-born hockey player Aleksander Barkov, the captain of the Florida Panthers.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

He\u2019d return to the Under-20 circuit for the playoffs, leading his team in points with 12 across 13 games.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

His strong play in the back half of the season would place him 79th in EliteProspects\u2019 2026 NHL Draft Guide. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cHe has the ideal power forward frame combined with projectable quickness and footspeed, along with a powerful shot that uses from every distance.\u201d – EliteProspects Draft Guide<\/a>.<\/p>\n

With pick No. 168, Vanhatalo would fall into the paws of the Panthers, joining Barkov.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Despite the connection to Barkov, he said at the NHL draft that he models his game after Matthew Knies of the Toronto Maple Leafs.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cHe is a power forward just like me. He has a good shot and a lot of scoring skills. He is a good role model for me,\u201d <\/span>he said to Teemu Suvinen of Ilta-Sanomat<\/span><\/a>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The hockey connections are strong in the Vanhatalo family, with two older brothers active in the sport.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Lassi, 28, is his biggest role model. The 6-foot-7 winger has been a longtime pro in Finland, with the 6-foot-7 winger suiting up in 260 games across nine seasons in Liiga, even serving as an assistant captain for Vaasan Sport in 2022-23.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Miika, 30, has been much more hands-on with Vilho\u2019s development, having coached him at the Under-16 and Under-18 levels. He head-coached Tappara\u2019s Under-16 team, which Vilho would later captain, to a league title before both moved to the Under-18 squad, with Miika joining the championship-winning team as an assistant coach in 2024-25.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

That season, Vilho led the Finnish Under-18 league in goals with 37 across just 41 games, while scoring 10 goals in 12 games in the playoffs.<\/span><\/p>\n

Vanhatalo is set to join returners Ondrej Ruml (Colorado Avalanche) and Filip Ekberg (Carolina Hurricanes) as the team\u2019s three imports for the 2026-27 season.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css=””]The 2026 OHL Priority Selection on Friday night proved to be a special night, returning to an in-person setting for the first time since 2000. For Belleville-born, Kingston-raised Andrew Laurin, the night was even more special, getting the call by the Ottawa 67\u2019s as their 18th overall selection.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s a dream come true,\u201d said Laurin. \u201cEspecially to be done in my hometown, it means a lot to my family and I.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Laurin was joined by several family members, including his brother, his grandmother, and her friends.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI have to thank all my family, coaches, trainers, advisors; I wouldn\u2019t be here without all of them,\u201d said Laurin. \u201cI want to shout out my parents, but especially my younger brother Blake,\u201d he said.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Blake is following his older brother\u2019s path, as he\u2019s a goaltender within the Quinte Red Devils U13 AAA squad. \u201cHe\u2019s pushed me every day to get better.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI just want to thank them for all their sacrifices and help along the way.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Throughout the draft process, it seemed like fate that the Ottawa 67\u2019s were going to land Andrew Laurin.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cCertain players jump out at you a bit earlier with their playing style and the DNA of what we look for; he was on our radar at the Toronto Titans Tournament sometime in September,\u201d said General Manager Jan Egert. \u201cAt that point, you have no idea what the draft looks like or where you\u2019re going to select, but Andrew became a player of priority for us very early.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI had an interview with Ottawa earlier in the year, and I thought it went really well, but it was my first one, so I didn\u2019t really know how to gauge it,\u201d he said. \u201cMy progression this season was one of the big things I talked with Mr. Egert about; that\u2019s what gave me that feeling.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

The right winger registered 51 points across 34 games with the Quinte Red Devils U16 AAA in the Ontario Minor Hockey Association U16 AAA.<\/span><\/p>\n

Laurin familiarized himself with the 67\u2019s over the course of the season.<\/p>\n

\u201cI followed a lot of 67\u2019s games this season,\u201d he said. \u201cI came to the Slush Puppie Place for the playoffs this past year, watching those games and how they handled business.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI heard of this,\u201d said Egert with a smile. \u201cI didn\u2019t ask which team he rooted for at that point, though I might put him on the spot later on.\u201d<\/p>\n

This was Egert\u2019s first year running the draft as the team\u2019s general manager, and while you\u2019d want to make the right pick every year, there\u2019s no doubt a bit more at stake in getting this one right. \u201cAs we worked through the process, we quite often came back to the name Andrew Laurin.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Laurin would pick up the pace late-season, with five points in four games at the OHL Cup and 12 points over eight games in the OMHA U16 playoffs. Yet it was after meeting his family that he shifted from being a player of priority for the 67’s to the team\u2019s target.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI spent an hour with them, and I got a sense that the human values are aligned with us as well,\u201d said Egert. \u201cThe ambition, the passion, and the mentality of the young athlete made him a fit.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

However, while there was a fit between the player and the personality, an underlying connection was discovered during the process.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cMy parents used to live in Ottawa before they moved to Kingston, so I\u2019ve heard stories about the city,\u201d said Laurin, who grew up in Kingston. That connection would prove to be two-fold, as long before Egert was with the 67\u2019s, Egert spent some time growing up in Westport, Ontario, a small town around 45 minutes away from Kingston.<\/span><\/p>\n

Laurin describes himself as a \u2018smart, physical player who can be relied upon in big moments\u2019.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI thrive under pressure,\u201d he added. \u201cOnce you get to know me, I hope you\u2019ll know I have character and play with passion.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

What Laurin thinks his x-factor is his physicality, \u201cthat\u2019s what brings my game to life.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Thus, it is no surprise that Laurin says he models his game after physical power forwards Tom Wilson and Josh Anderson.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s their leadership on the ice, the way they carry themself each and every shift,\u201d he said. \u201cTwo guys who bring energy to the game by their physicality and size, and they also score in the big moments and live up to the hype and higher-pressure situations.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

As for playing in Ottawa, Laurin can\u2019t wait to get started.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThe work starts now,\u201d he said. \u201cIt\u2019s super exciting to see what the team was last year, and what it\u2019s only going to become.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI know it\u2019s a first-class organization and an amazing city to be in,\u201d he said. \u201cI\u2019ve heard nothing but great things, and I am super excited to get there.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m super honoured to be under (Dave Cameron)\u2019s wing,\u201d he said. \u201cI expect him to hold me accountable\u2026 whatever he thinks I need to work on, I\u2019ll do it.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI think my skating could always use improvement,\u201d he said of the one area he thinks he could develop the most. \u201cI think specifically, my first three steps and stride could get quicker, and if they get quicker, I\u2019ll be able to use my skillset to create more opportunities in the offensive zone for my teammates and I.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

For now, he\u2019s keeping his plan for the next step on his OHL journey simple and straightforward.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cJust looking to put the puck in the back of the net, be reliable, and hopefully bring a couple of trophies home in the coming years.\u201d<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
