The Greater Ontario Hockey League (GOJHL) was well represented at the Ontario Hockey Association’s (OH recent Annual General Meeting and Awards Celebration held at the Nottawasaga Inn Resort & Conference Centre in Alliston. Four players earned awards along with a legendary trainer.
Doug spent 45 years as a trainer and has been with the Kings since 2019. He retired after the 2022-23 season. Congratulations Doug on a well-deserved award.
MacPherson has added this trophy to his collection after a stellar season that saw the Flyers win the Sutherland Cup. Connor is currently ranked 128th on the NHL Central Scouting List with the draft coming up on June 28 in Nashville, Tennessee.
This award is presented annually to the top prospect in the OHA. Munro, a Prince Edward County native, was an up-and-coming prospect slated to be drafted into the Ontario Hockey League when he was tragically killed in a car accident in 1994.

Three GOJHL players have been named top prospects, an incredible achievement with the immense junior hockey talent across the province:
Nicholl, a third-round draft pick of the London Knights in 2022, can add this award to an already long list. He was named Rookie of the Year and Top Rookie Scorer in the Western Conference this past season and played in the GOJHL Future Stars game.
This third-round pick of the Hamilton Bulldogs played in 18 OHL games last season. He was selected to the Golden Horseshoe Conference All-Rookie Team, was an All-Star in St. Andrew’s College MacPherson Challenge Tournament, and played in the GOJHL Future Stars Game.
Egorov had a solid season and was also named to the Golden Horseshoe Conference All-Rookie Team, named Tournament MVP in St. Andrew’s College MacPherson Challenge Tournament, and named to the GOJHL Future Stars Team. He was taken in the fourth round by Hamilton Bulldogs in the 2022 OHL Priority Draft.
