17-year old Owen Guy took the CCHL by storm in his rookie season with the Kemptville 73’s and was named CCM Rookie of the Year for his efforts. His above average hockey sense and great skating ability combined make him extremely dangerous. His positioning and skating make him a target for teammates to feed the puck to at full speed, whether it be transitioning from the defensive zone on a rush or going to the scoring areas of the ice. He brings intelligence and great offensive upside to the table and is dominant on the power play. He needs to work on his play without the puck and continue to get stronger to put himself into a top 6 role when he reaches the next level.
