Senators Draft Defenceman Chandler Romeo with Final Pick of 2021

With their sixth and final pick of the 2021 NHL Entry Draft, the Ottawa Senators selected defenceman Chandler Romeo of the Ontario Junior Hockey League’s Brantford 99ers, 202nd overall.

Romeo (pronounced Roh-may-oh), turned 18 just over a week ago, and was a third-round pick of the Ontario Hockey League’s Hamilton Bulldogs in 2019. The 6’5, 205lb left-handed defenceman spent the following season with the Greater Ontario Junior Hockey League’s Brantford Bandits, as well as with the OJHL’s 99ers.

Romeo was slated to spend last season with the Bulldogs, before the cancellation of the OHL season.
