The Tikis made five selections at the 2026 EOJHL Draft tonight. We’d like to welcome all of these players to the Tikis Family and look forward to building out our roster over the summer!
Round 1 – Ethan Gillespie – LW – Upper Canada Cyclones U18 AAA – Prescott ON
Round 2 – Makoto Storr – C – Gloucester Rangers U18 AA – Brockville ON
Round 3 – Lucas Mullen – RW – Ottawa Valley Titans U18 AAA – Carleton Place ON
Round 4 – John McLaughlin – D – Ottawa Sting U18 AA – Ottawa ON
Round 5 – Tyson Larkin – D – Gloucester Rangers U18 AA – Greely ON
Braves GM Ryan Leonard shares his thoughts on the draft:
“We are excited to be back at the draft table as we revive the Tikis. We are starting from scratch and today is the start of a new chapter for Tikis hockey. Being able to pick up a couple of local players is a bonus as it was not easy with the last pick in draft in the later rounds. There will be lots of opportunities for players on our team as we need to fill a whole roster this year.
Now we are on the hunt for a new Head Coach to lead and mentor these young men.”
The Tikis are accepting Head Coach applications until Friday May 1 at 8pm.
