    The 6-2 176 lb Jake Murray had 14 goals, 25 assists, and 39 points in 28 games with the Huron-Puerth Lakers. Jake Murray was the team captain of the Huran-Perth Lakers.

    The 5-11 134 lb Ryan Hanrahan only had 6 goals, 4 assists, and 10 points in limited action. This feels like a reach for a first round pick. Kane Barch, Keaton Ardagh, and Peter Green the top defensemen were both still on the board. Heck, I think some of the goalies in this years OHL Draft would have been better value picks than Ryan Hanrahan. Hopefully, Ryan can make something happen and make me look foolish for doubting him, but the Saginaw Spirit get a D grade here.
    
    
    
14. Brampton Steelheads: Peter Green, D, (2027) A+ Grade

    The 5-11 165 lb Matthew Henderson had 6 goals, 20 assists, and 26 points in 30 games with the Huron-Perth Lakers Under 16 AAA Team. Matthew Henderson has the skating, offensive awareness, defensive awareness, and hockey IQ. He's a great decision maker that's got to develop more as a passer and shooter. He does a great job crashing the boards to retrieve the puck.
    
    
    
18. Barrie Colts: Aleksandr Sementsov, LW, (2027) A+ Grade
    
    
    Aleksandr Sementsov had 51 goals, 85 assists, and 136 points with the Halton Hurricanes Under 16 AAA Team. This was easily the best value pick in the late first round.

19. Sault Ste. Marie Greyhounds: Ryan Kaczynski, C, (2027) F Grade
    
    
    Ryan Kaczynski could turn down the OHL to play for the United States National Team Developmental Program in the USHL if he wants to go the NCAA route since he was born in the United States. If that's what Ryan wants to do, then the Sault Ste. Marie Greyhounds just wasted their first round compensation pick. If he goes to the OHL, I'm open to adjusting this grade since he's a talented hockey player.
    
    
    
20. Brantford Bulldogs: David Buchman, D, (2027) A+ Grade
    
    
    The 5-11 165 lb David Buchman had 10 goals, 38 assists, and 48 points in 31 games with the Ottawa Valley Titans complimenting number one draft pick Kaden McGregor by helping out the Ottawa Valley center as a quarterback on the power play.

    The 6-0 167 lb John McLaughlin had 16 goals, 17 assists, and 33 points in 24 games with the Lambton Jr. Sting Under 16 Team. He gets to a chance to play with last years top pick Ethan Belchetz who went first overall in the 2024 OHL Draft. Windsor has produced great first round talents like Taylor Hall and Wyatt Johnston whose had a lot of success with the Dallas Stars.
    
    
    
22. Kitchener Rangers: Kane Barch, LW, (2027), A+ Grade
    
    
    The 5-11 174 lb Kane Barch had 23 goals, 36 assists, and 59 points in 30 games with the Huran-Perth Lakers. Kane Barch was considered a top 10 prospect at one point, so to get him this late in the first round is an absolute steal for the Kitchener Rangers. I also liked the Alexander Forrest pick the Kitchener Rangers made at 24 in the second round.
    
    
    
    Kane Barch has the speed, explosion, burst, agility, skating, foot speed, playmaking, passing, sniping, wrist shot power, wrist shot accuracy, slap shot power, slap shot accuracy, vision, offensive awareness, defensive awareness, and hockey IQ to succeed in the OHL.

    The 6-4 171 lb Alex Campeau had 11 goals, 21 assists, and 32 points in 32 games. He averaged about a point a game. He has the best size among any center drafted in the first round. Alex Campeau has the offensive awareness, defensive awareness, and hockey IQ to contribute on the London Knights.
