Last season, he had his best season to date last season as the Generals made it to the Eastern Conference Finals for the first time since 2015.
Ennis is another General joining the leadership group who has played his entire OHL career with the team. Drafted in the third round, forty-sixth overall in 2016 OHL Priority Selection, he is currently one of the longest tenured Generals on the team. Over his time in Oshawa he has won the Scholastic Award twice (2018, 2019), Fitness Award (2018) and Top Defenceman Award (2019) at the team’s annual awards ceremony at the end of season season.
Brewer is headed into this third season in a Generals uniform. He is another player who is a product of a Generals draft, selected in the first round, fifteenth overall in the 2017 OHL Priority Selection. He is a stable force continuously on the blue line for the team. He has previously won the Generals Rookie of the Year Award and the Community Award for his work with the organization Camp F.A.C.E.S., a charity close to his family.
All four members of the leadership group have played the entirety of their OHL careers with the Generals.
