Greyhounds sign blueliner Christopher Weiss

Soo Greyhounds General Manager Kyle Raftis has announced the signing of defenceman Christopher Weiss to an OHL Scholarship and Development Agreement.

“Christopher is a lengthy defender who competes hard and makes life difficult on opposing forwards in his own zone. He is very effective in transition, using both his skating and puck-moving ability to quickly move play up ice and create offence for his teammates. We’re excited to welcome Christopher to our program and look forward to supporting him as he continues his development and takes the next step in his hockey career”, said Raftis.

Weiss, a product of Washington Township MI graduated through the Honeybaked AAA program before most recently appearing for the Oakland Jr. Grizzlies 16U AAA in 2025-26. In 60 games played the 6-foot-2, 187 lb blueliner recorded 8 goals and 39 assists, good for 47 points throughout Michigan Amateur Hockey Association contests and independent match-ups.

In 5 games played at the 2025 Boys National 16 tournament he recorded 4 points (1G, 3A). 

He was originally selected by the Greyhounds in the 6th Round (123rd overall) of the 2025 OHL Priority Selection.

“I’m super excited about signing with the Greyhounds, and I can’t wait to get started next season! I would like to thank my family, advisor, coaches, and friends for giving me this opportunity. Go Hounds”, said Weiss.
