One of the Detroit Red Wing’s top defensive prospects, Filip Hronek, was voted to the OHL’s third all-star team earlier this afternoon after receiving 25 votes from eligible voters. The Wings drafted Hronek 53rd overall in the second round of the 2016 NHL Entry Draft.
Hronek appeared in 59 regular season games for the Saginaw Spirit in 2016-17, tallying 14 goals, 47 assists, and a plus 15 rating. Filip’s numbers last season with the Spirit were good enough to place him fourth overall out of all OHL defencemen. His 61 points was also second best out of all Saginaw skaters.
