For the entirety of his OHL career, Philadelphia Flyers prospect Jett Luchanko has played on a team that did not surround him with the requisite talent to compete at a high level. This week that changed.
Luchanko has started off strong overall back in the Canadian junior ranks, with 17 points in his first 11 games. However, he’s only scored twice, and his now former team the Guelph Storm still sit seventh in the OHL’s Western Conference. It was shaping up to be another fruitless year for Luchanko, until the Bulldogs sent 17-year old Layne Gallacher and a plethora of draft picks to the Storm in order to acquire the Flyers prospect.
