The Ottawa 67's have traded two players for future drafts picks, the team announced on June 30.

Goaltender Will Cranley has been traded to the Flint Firebirds in exchange for a conditional 15th-round pick in the 2026 Ontario Hockey League (OHL) Draft while forward Vsevolod Gaidamak is heading to the Niagara IceDogs in return for a fourth-round pick in the 2023 OHL Draft. 

“We would like to wish Will the very best in all his future endeavours,” said 67's general manager James Boyd.

Cranley was selected 35th overall by the 67's back in 2018, and went on to appear in 73 games with the team, posting a record of 35-27-5. 

The Peterborough-native was also selected by the St. Louis Blues in the sixth round of the 2020 National Hockey League (NHL) Entry Draft, and signed a three-year entry-level contract with the team on March 2.

Russian-born Gaidamak was selected 57th overall by the Barber Poles in 2020. In his first season, Gaidamak appeared in 60 games, scoring 16 goals and 17 assists.
