Burgess says this is your chance to see tomorrow’s NHL stars today. “It’s seeing guys like Tyler Toffoli, Shane Prince, Cody Ceci and Petr Mrazek before they hit the NHL”.
Ceci is an Orleans native and has seen his NHL Draft stock rise in the final Central Scouting Report. According to analyst John Chabot. “He’s gone a long way in the last two or three months to cement his position in the draft”.
The winner of tonight’s game will advance to the OHL’s Eastern Conference final starting Friday night in St.Catherines against Niagara.
