Wolves’ David Goyette named Cogeco OHL Player of the Week
Toronto, Ont. – The Ontario Hockey League today announced that Seattle Kraken prospect David Goyette of the Sudbury Wolves is the Cogeco OHL Player of the Week for the second time this season, contributing three goals, eight assists and 11 points while registering a plus-6 rating in three games played.
Goyette tallied a season-high six-point night on Friday, registering a pair of goals and four assists to earn third star honours in a lopsided 13-4 win over the Barrie Colts. He found the scoresheet again on Saturday, earning second star honours with a goal and four helpers in a 9-2 win over the Niagara IceDogs.
Earning the Eddie Powers Memorial Trophy as the season’s top scorer, Goyette registered 40 goals, 77 assists, and 117 points in 68 regular season appearances, the most scored by a Wolves player since 1999. Selected in the second-round (61st overall) by the Seattle Kraken in the 2022 NHL Draft, the former first-round (11th overall) pick by the Wolves in the 2020 OHL Priority Selection has put up 114 goals, 168 assists and 282 points in 197 OHL regular season contests. Goyette signed an entry-level NHL contract with Seattle on Apr. 10, 2023.
Also considered for the award this week, San Jose Sharks prospect and Wolves teammate Quentin Musty recorded 10 points (4-6–10) in three games. Vancouver Canucks prospect Josh Bloom of the Saginaw Spirit also had a standout week, registering eight points (2-6–8) in three showings.
