It’s February and that means it is time for us to look at the Ontario Hockey League players eligible for the 2022 National Hockey League Entry Draft and see who is leading the way statistically. Because of the missed 2020-2021 OHL season, we are including first and second time draft eligible players just because of the volume of players eligible.
If you’ve been following along since the start of the season, the one name that has been missing from this list is potential first overall pick Shane Wright of the Kingston Frontenacs. And if you’ve been waiting for him to appear, your wait is finally over.
Wright is now third in points behind Luca Del Bel Belluz of the Mississauga Steelheads and Tucker Robertson of the Peterborough Petes. But he has played considerably fewer games as well. He sits second in assists behind Del Bel Belluz and ninth in goals. Robertson has led in the goal department for almost the entire season.
Ty Nelson of the North Bay Battalion continues to lead defencemen in scoring but watch out for Christian Kyrou of the Erie Otters who closed the gap and sit within one point of the leader and in six fewer games.
Here are the leaders in several different statistical categories. While we take great care in compiling stats, always refer to the OHL website for official stats.
