The Owen Sound Attack is pleased to announce that with their first selection in the 3rd Round, they have chosen forward Matthew Struthers of the Halton Hurricanes Minor Midgets and with their second selection immediately following, selected goaltender Riley Daniels of the Niagara North Stars.

In 36 games with the Hurricanes, the 6'1 Struthers tallied 20 goals and 20 assists to go along with 38 penalty minutes. Struthers also served as the Captain for the Hurricanes last season.
