Erie, Pennsylvania - The eyes of the scouting world will all fall on second-year Erie Otters forward Carey Terrance, as he will represent the organization in the 2023 Kubota CHL/NHL Top Prospects Game in British Columbia.

Slated for January 25, 2023 at the Langley Events Centre, the 2023 Kubota CHL/NHL Top Prospects Game showcases the top-40 CHL players eligible for the 2023 NHL Entry Draft from across the Ontario Hockey League, Western Hockey League, and Quebec Major Junior Hockey League. The 40 players were identified via a survey conducted with the NHL's 32 teams, with Terrance being among 15 selected from the OHL.

Drafted by Erie with the 10thOverall Pick in the 2021 OHL Priority Selection Draft, Terrance has suited up in nearly 90 games for the Otters, grabbing a career 44 points (22G+22A) including three game-winning goals as a rookie.

Named an Alternate Captain for the 2022-23 season, Terrance's workload has increased to be a mainstay on the team's Power Play (with five man-advantage goals) & Penalty Killing teams. In his sophomore season, the draft-eligible Forward has already surpassed his goals-scored mark from his first season, and is just four points away from matching his total points scored in year one. A top-four scorer for the Otters, Terrance has found 20 points (12G+8A) in 27 games. Erie Otters General Manager Dave Brown had high regards for Terrance's selection.

"This is a well-deserved selection. Carey is someone who is dedicated to his goal. His willingness to learn and continue grow, no doubt, intrigued many NHL scouts." said Brown, "I know Carey will continue to work extremely hard to leave a lasting impression on all that attend the CHL's event. We are ecstatic for him, and excited to watch him represent the Otters organization."

Earlier this season Terrance was named to NHL Central Scouting's October "Players to Watch" List, earning a 'B' Ranking - indicative of a player likely to be drafted between the second and fourth rounds of the NHL Entry Draft. Following the list's release, Terrance has grabbed 15 points (10G+5A) in 17 games.

Terrance is the first Otters player since Jamie Drysdale (2020) to represent the team in the CHL/NHL Top Prospects Game.

The Erie Otters congratulate Carey on this terrific personal accomplishment, and look forward to his representation of the organization in this acclaimed event.
