“We would like to welcome Haeden and the Ellis family to the Rangers organization. Haeden is a skilled, smart and competitive player,” said Kitchener Rangers General Manager, Mike McKenzie. “We look forward to playing a role and seeing his development in Kitchener and feel he will thrive in the positive and professional environment the OHL offers.”
