Admittedly, Voit was the one player I was very optimistic about last year.

He is the exact type of player you want to take a flyer on late in the draft. Even though he was unable to play in his draft year due to the pandemic, his first season in the OHL was quite impressive.

In 49 games played, amongst U-17 forwards, Voit sat ninth in both raw point totals (28) and points per game (0.57). He was tied in points per game with Wyatt Johnson, a first round pick of the Dallas Stars selected 23rd overall.

As well, he was just below Chase Stillman (0.59) and Brennan Othmann (0.60), drafted 29th and 16th overall respectively.

This year with the Sting, he performed even better.

In 67 games he scored 26 goals and added 54 assists for 80 points. This put him 6th in U-19 scoring, 5th in terms of points per games played. Even more impressively, as a playmaker, he showed his prowess producing 31 primary assists, 3rd in the entire OHL.

Going forward you’d like to see him pot a few more goals but you can’t complain about his production as a whole.
