The Greater Ontario Junior Hockey League is pleased to announce the winners of our Collins Clothiers Players of the Month for October.
Player of the Month: Evan Bradacs (Caledonia Corvairs)
10 GP: 11 goals, 2 assists 13 points
After starting the season with just 1 point in his first 5 games, the 2nd-year forward scored points in 10 of 11 games in October, finishing the month with a 7-game goal streak. An 11th round pick by the OHL’s Brantford Bulldogs in 2023, Evan’s 11 goals on the season are tied for most in the league, as he is already just one goal shy of matching his 12-goal total in 47 games last season.
Rookie of the Month: Liam Campbell (Chatham Maroons)
9 GP: 7 goals, 5 assists 12 points
A 7th round pick of the OHL’s Saginaw Spirit in 2024, Liam started the month with a 7-game goal streak, and finished with points in 8 of 9 games, helping the Maroons to a 6-2-1 record for the month. The Elginburg native leads all GOJHL rookies with 10 goals and is tied for the rookie scoring lead with 16 points.
Goaltender of the Month: Kayden Newton (Ayr Centennials)
6 GP: 6-0-0, 2.00 GAA, .945 Sv%, 1 SO
The rookie netminder won all 6 starts in October to improve to a perfect 7-0-0 this season. The highlight was a 37-save effort to earn his second shutout of the season in the Centennials’ 8-0 win over the Panthers on the 17th. An 11th round pick by the OHL’s Guelph Storm in 2023, the Waterdown native is 2nd among GOJHL goalies in Save% (.951) and 3rd in GAA (1.71) this season.
