Greyhounds’ Marco Mignosa named Cogeco OHL Player of the Week

Toronto, ON – The Ontario Hockey League today announced that Soo Greyhounds forward Marco Mignosa is the Cogeco OHL Player of the Week for the second time this season, scoring twice while adding four assists for six points in a pair of road games last week.

Mignosa earned first star honours, helping the Hounds beat the North Bay Battalion 4-1 on the road Wednesday night as he picked up a goal and an assist. He extended his point streak to six games on Friday in Guelph, emerging with a goal and three assists despite a 6-4 loss to the Storm.

A 19-year-old from Vaughan, Ont., Mignosa is having a productive fourth season with the Greyhounds, leading the team with 32 points (13-19–32) despite an injury-shortened 23 games thus far. The 5-foot-11, 170Ib. right-wing has recorded 147 points (58-89–147) over 203 career regular season games since being Sault Ste. Marie’s second round (36th overall) pick in the 2021 OHL Priority Selection from the Toronto Nationals U16 AAA program.

Also considered for the award this week, newly acquired London Knights defenceman Cam Allen posted five points (1-4–5) through his first two games in green and gold. Knights teammate Blake Montgomery also recorded five points (2-3–5) as the Knights entered the break with a pair of wins.
