        <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p data-start="138" data-end="341"><strong data-start="138" data-end="151">TORONTO – </strong>A total of 76 Ontario Hockey League (OHL) players have been included in NHL Central Scouting’s Final Draft Rankings for the 2026 NHL Draft, underscoring the league’s depth heading into June.</p>
&nbsp;
<h5><span data-teams="true">CANADIAN HOCKEY LEAGUE BOASTS 75.5 PER CENT OF RANKS TO LEAD ALL NORTH AMERICAN DEVELOPMENT LEAGUES</span></h5>
The list features 65 skaters and 11 goaltenders from across the OHL, spanning all 20 member clubs. In total, 197 players developed across the Canadian Hockey League's (CHL) three member leagues (OHL, WHL, and QMJHL) were included in the final rankings. The Western Hockey League (WHL) leads the way with 78 current players (69 skaters, 9 goaltenders), while the Quebec Maritimes Junior Hockey League (QMJHL) features 41 (35 skaters, 6 goaltenders).

Of the 224 North American skaters ranked, 65 hail from the OHL, accounting for approximately 29% of the list.

Defenceman <strong>Chase Reid</strong> of the Soo Greyhounds leads the way among OHL prospects, ranked second overall on the North American Skater list. He is one of four OHL players inside the top 10, joined by <strong>Caleb Malhotra</strong> of the Brantford Bulldogs (6), <strong>Nikita Klepov</strong> (8), and <strong>Ethan Belchetz</strong> of the Windsor Spitfires (9).

“It was difficult to come up with this order, and there is strong consensus that all four of these defencemen are going to be franchise builders,” said Dan Marr, Vice President and Director of NHL Central Scouting, on the latest edition of the NHL Draft Class podcast. “[Chase] Reid was the new kid on the block, but at every level and in every situation he was put in, he didn’t just perform — he excelled with the puck. He also has a very strong defensive game, which I don’t think he gets enough credit for.”

Malhotra, who arrived in the OHL after a season in the BCHL, quickly established himself as one of the league’s most complete forwards. The 17-year-old recorded 84 points (29-55–84) in 67 games, setting a new single-season mark for most points by a Brantford Bulldogs rookie. He also posted a plus-33 rating, added eight game-winning goals, and produced 30 points on the power play, proving he could thrive alongside older, skilled players on a deep roster.

“Caleb had a more well-rounded game for us. Going into the season, he was a bit more unknown after coming from the BCHL, but right from the first game, we knew we had to move him to an A-rated prospect,” Marr said. “He has a complete game — he plays with composure and compete, and makes plays where there is no play. He’s very well respected within his team and around the league.”

Klepov’s offensive instincts have also stood out among this year’s class, as he emerged as one of the most dangerous scorers in the OHL. The Saginaw Spirit forward led the league with 97 points (37-60–97) in 67 games, capturing the Eddie Powers Memorial Trophy as the OHL’s top point producer while also being named the recipient of the Emms Family Award as OHL Rookie of the Year.

In doing so, Klepov became the first player since Patrick Kane in 2007 to win both honours in the same season. He also tied a Saginaw franchise rookie record with 37 goals, adding 38 power-play points and three shorthanded markers to showcase his all-situations impact.

“He reminds me of Ilya Kovalchuk — always open, always dangerous with the one-timer,” Marr said. “He’s that type of scorer, but he’s also a hard-working two-way player who understands the game very well. When he’s ready, he’s going to hit the NHL in a big way.”

Belchetz, meanwhile, has taken notable strides in rounding out his game, emerging as a physically imposing presence with a growing offensive toolkit. He remained at No. 9 despite being sidelined since late February after sustaining a season-ending injury.

“Ethan filled the holes in his game this past season, and any doubt people may have had, he erased,” Marr added. “He’s a power forward with good hands, strong puck skills, and high hockey sense. Sometimes it takes bigger players longer to reach their peak, but he’s already performing at a high level — and he hasn’t even reached that peak yet. He’s a huge physical presence, but also one of the more humble players you’ll meet.”

&nbsp;

In total, <strong>10</strong> OHL players are ranked among the top 32 North American skaters, signalling strong first-round potential across the league.

By position, the OHL's contribution to the list includes 14 centres, 17 left-wingers, 11 right-wingers, and 23 defencemen, along with 11 goaltenders.

<span style="font-weight: 400">All 20 OHL member teams are represented in the final rankings, led by the London Knights with seven players included – the highest total in the OHL. CHL-wide, that mark is matched by the WHL's Prince Albert Raiders, while the Medicine Hat Tigers lead all CHL clubs with nine players ranked.</span>

The 2026 NHL Draft will be held June 26–27 at KeyBank Center in Buffalo, New York, marking the fourth time the Buffalo Sabres have hosted the event. The NHL will once again use a decentralized format, with prospects and their families attending in person while team executives make selections remotely from their home markets. Buffalo has also hosted the NHL’s annual Scouting Combine since 2015 and will welcome the league’s top draft-eligible prospects again this spring.

For the Attack, </span><b><i>Matthew Koprowski</i></b><span style="font-weight: 400"> would take to the stand making 29 saves of 35 shots. </span>

<b><i>Nathan Aspinall</i></b><span style="font-weight: 400"> would make his 5th of the playoff series early in the first frame opening the score 1-0.

<span style="font-weight: 400">Coming out of the gate with new found energy, the Attack would find their powerplay advantage. Gaining possession of the puck John Banks would bring the puck in over the blueline passing to teammate Nicholas Sykora.

A final blow to the scoreboard from <em><strong>Christopher Thibodeau (1)</strong></em> in the remaining 36 seconds gave Flint a 4-0 lead coming out of the period.

Evening out momentum in the second period, the Bears continued to buckle down and pursue puck possession. Maintain the 4-0 score for most of the of the period, the Bears were able to slow down Flint's growing recorded score. Just over halfway through the period, <em><strong>Battaglia (2) </strong></em>would once again rush the Attack netminder, making his second goal of the game, assisted by Kevin He and Thibodeau.

Coming crashing out of the gates again in the third period, Flint would fire another round of shots towards to the Attack defences, seeing another two goals added to the scoresheet from <em><strong>Darian Anderson (1)</strong></em> and <em><strong>Dryden Allen (1)</strong></em> early in the frame. A small light at the end of the tunnel for the Attack emerged when <em><strong>Masen Wray (1)</strong></em> made a power play Owen Sound goal from the point giving the Attack a small relief in a now 7-1 score. With little time remaining on the board, the Firebirds' relentless pelting of the net gave way to a last minute goal from <em><strong>Xavier Tessier (1)</strong></em> , ending this game in a 8-1 Flint victory.
