Storm acquire Chandler Romeo from the Sarnia Sting
General Manager George Burnett announced today that the Guelph Storm have acquired Ottawa Senators draft pick Chandler Romeo and a 2nd round pick (SAR) in 2026 from the Sarnia Sting in exchange for a 2nd round pick (BAR) and a 4th round pick (HAM) in the 2023 OHL Priority Selection.
The 2003-born defenceman from Cambridge, Ontario was originally selected in the third round (49th overall) by the Hamilton Bulldogs in the 2019 Ontario Hockey League Priority Selection. In parts of three seasons in the OHL, split between the Bulldogs and the Sarnia Sting, the 6-foot-5, 205lbs blueliner has recorded 23 points (3 goals, 20 assists) and 130 PIMs in 91 games played.
This season, Romeo has tallied 1 goal and 4 assists for 5 points and 30 PIMs in 24 games for the Sting. Before his OHL career, Romeo suited up for the GTHL’s Toronto Red Wings AAA program and split the 2019-20 campaign between the GOJHL’s Brantford Bandits and OJHL’s Brantford 99ers. Romeo was selected by the Ottawa Senators in the 7th round (202nd overall) in the 2021 NHL Entry Draft.
