Blackhawks prospect Alex DeBrincat wins OHL championship

Chicago Blackhawks prospect Alex DeBrincat capped his third season with the Erie Otters in the Ontario Hockey League with the J. Ross Robertson Cup.

The Otters won Game 5 4-3 in overtime over Mississauga to capture the Cup on Friday at Erie Insurance Arena in Erie. It’s the first OHL championship since 2002 for the Otters.

DeBrincat had the secondary assist on the game-winning goal in the series-clinching game. He had 13 goals and 38 points in the postseason.

DeBrincat signed a three-year entry-level contract with Chicago in April. The deal will begin in 2017-18.
