GUELPH, Ont. — As far as Sarnia Sting head coach Derian Hatcher is concerned, Jordan Kyrou is meeting his expectations. And Hatcher set that bar as high as possible.
“Going into the year we knew he would potentially be the best player in the league,” Hatcher said. “That’s what we feel about him and I think that as of now, he’s held up to that.
“I think that’s sums it up. We feel we have the best player in the league.”
The 19-year-old Kyrou leads the Ontario Hockey League with 29 assists and is tied for second with 18 goals. He leads the league with 47 points, seven more than Windsor’s Aaron Luchuk.
