2009 Born for the 2025 OHL Draft

[LDN]

I find player comps so useless because each player is so different.

Murata - Best vision and playmaking ability
Wycisk - Best goal scorer
Warren - Best skater
Delisle - Best all round (no real weaknesses) + toughness
McGregor - Best compete + 2 way game

Thank you! This is good to know. Is it really between the top 3? Like not much separation in their ability. I guess what I’m asking is there’s no real favourite?

I don't think there's a clear favorite for first overall. If I had to put money on it, I think it's between Murata, Delisle and Wycisk. But if you look at some lists, people have Warren #1. I think it'll come down to team preferences, their evaluations and interviews of these top players.

Last year it was clearly Belchetz with Valentini going to USHL

Year before it was clearly Schaefer, with Roobroeck and Martin not far behind.

This year is a little but tougher, but if you watched the GTHL game last night, Murata was clearly the best player on the ice.

How big/small is MacGregor? As an Ottawa Valley kid withthe 67’s likey picking early, I could see them going in that direction with the 4th/5th pick if they end up there.

Another local Ottawa kid, to keep your eyes on, is Brayden Bennett (Toronto Titans). A complete players in all aspects of the game (speed, power, compete and high hockey IQ). Bennett is elite!

probably a mid 1st round pick. he has some issues to work on is all id say. hes hurt for a while now.

Ottawa is likely picking top 5-6. I think the top 5 or so seem to be mostly consistent in the rankings right now. Of course, the OHL Cup could make a difference when it rolls around but as of right now, I am not sure he goes that high.

Bennett has all the tools, just needs to put it all together. He'll be a good player at the next level. Late first round pick in the 15-25 range I would think. Could see him in the 10-15 range if a team really likes him.

I currently have Bennett flip-flopping between 10-9 on my rankings. His skating is so impressive. His play in the OHL cup will ultimately decide his draft position. Nonetheless an interesting first round player to track.
