Fantasy Summary

Quick, intelligent playmaker with room to grow into his 6-2 frame


Observations

January 2025- Jake O’Brien has been a steady climber this season thanks to his terrific production with
Brantford and, most recently, a great showing at the OHL Top Prospects Game. He’s a smooth skater with
excellent hockey sense and playmaking ability from the middle of the ice. Standing at 6-2 170 lbs,
O’Brien has substantial progress to make physically, which will only elevate his toolbox. He is matching
his outstanding junior rookie season by scoring well above a point per game pace so far with the
Bulldogs. O’Brien projects as a potential top 9 playmaking centre with lots of room in his frame to grow.
