Sting sign another 2019 draft pick

Forward Nolan Dann has signed a Standard Player Agreement with the Sarnia Sting.

The club has now received a commitment from their top three picks in the 2019 Ontario Hockey League Priority Selection.

Dann was selected in the fourth round, 68th overall, by the Sarnia Sting.

The Cambridge native played his minor midget season with the 2019 OHL Cup Finalist Toronto Red Wings where he posted 65 points (27 goals, 38 assists) in 72 games.

He also participated as a member of the GTHL Blue, which took the OHL Gold Cup in April.

Sting GM Nick Sinclair said he's looking forward to seeing Dann in action.

"Nolan is a competitive young man, who plays with a lot of passion. He is a versatile player with good speed and has a natural willingness to go to the dirty areas of the ice. These are exciting elements to his game that Sting fans will come to appreciate," said Sinclair. "We look forward to working with Nolan as he continues to develop and welcome him to the Sarnia Sting Organization."

Fans can catch the new members of the Sarnia Sting when Training Camp begins in August at the Progressive Auto Sales Arena.
