Flint Firebirds of the OHL are Reportedly Trading NYR First-Rounder Brennan Othmann
Per Jeff Marek, the Flint Firebirds of the OHL are trading New York Rangers 2021 #16th overall pick Brennan Othmann to the Peterborough Petes.
The Firebirds are hosting the Petes tonight, but Othmann - Flint's captain - is suspended, as Marek said above. The play for which the future Ranger was suspended could be described as soft, but then again Othmann has always toed the line, which probably had something to do with it.
The trade is still being finalized, but the return is likely a substantial package of futures. The Petes are chasing the Memorial Cup championship, and Othmann is a phenomenal player.
In 16 games so far this season, the Rangers' prospect has 11 goals, 13 assists, and 31 PIMs. He also showed out for Team Canada at the most recent World Junior Championship, scoring 6 points in 6 games. Along with his scoring acumen, his intangibles played a huge role in him being drafted as high as he was.
The Peterborough Petes should now be considered a major player for the CHL championship this spring.
