As we look at the Ontario Hockey League statistics among players eligible for the 2018 National Hockey League Draft, You will find the Stratford Ontario native and Sarnia Sting forward’s name at or near the top of many of those statistics.

Hinz is second in points, tied for top spot in goals, the leader in plus/minus, has the longest goal scoring streak of the season and second longest assist and point streak, and the best shooting percentage in the entire league.
Not too bad for a player who didn’t make NHL Central Scouting’s players to watch list.
