The CHL leads all leagues at the NHL draft, but will that last?
Episode 365
Tuesday, 1 July, 2025

As expected, the OHL had a dominant showing at the NHL draft, with five of the first eight selections coming from the league and an overall showing that was the best the OHL has had in almost a decade. Farwell and Dan break it down and also clean a few other things out of the notebook as we head into summer, including the trade of a two-time OHL champion and a new market to emerge as a Memorial Cup bidder. Plus, just for fun in our final episode of the 2025/26 season, we make it a family affair with an appearance from Dan's older brother (who also happens to be an old friend of Farwell's). Matt Meagher makes his home in Ottawa and brings us a fan's perspective of the new arena that will be built and how strong the 67's brand remains in the nation's capital. We might pop up from time to time over the summer if news warrants an appearance, and we're always willing to talk junior hockey via email at ohlpodcast@rogers.com. In the meantime, don't forget to like, subscribe, and leave a review or comment! It all helps to maintain our momentum as we look forward to a late-summer return ahead of the next OHL season. Thanks for your loyalty in helping us become the top junior hockey podcast in Ontario! Enjoy the summer.
