(Peterborough, ON) - The Ontario Hockey League announced today that Tucker Robertson of the Peterborough Petes is the OHL Player of the Week, following five points including three goals and two assists after a pair of victories.
Robertson got the Petes going on Thursday night, scoring before recording two primary assists in a 4-3 home win over the Hamilton Bulldogs . He earned first star honours, going 21-for-29 in the faceoff circle as the Petes got back in the win column. Roberson was excellent again on Saturday in Niagara, scoring second period goals three-and-a-half minutes apart as the Petes nipped the IceDogs 5-4 . Robertson was once again the game's first star, going 16-for-30 at the dot while recording four shots on goal.
"I had a great summer, the 18 months off because of COVID-19 helped me out a lot for training," said Robertson. "I want to get to the highest level and I want to be the best I can be. I've had a lot of great people around me, and the coaches have had a lot of trust in me. I have a lot of great teammates as well."
An 18-year-old product of Toronto, Ont., Robertson is second among OHL skaters producing 1.78 points-per-game this season. His 16 points (6-10-16) over nine contests pace the Peterborough offence while his 238 faceoffs are the third-most in the League as he currently boasts a 58.8 percent success rate. Robertson recorded 18 points (8-10-18) over 55 games in 2019-20 after being a fourth round (72nd overall) pick from the Toronto Marlboros U16 program in the 2019 OHL Priority Selection. He attended rookie camp with the Carolina Hurricanes this past September.
Robertson along with teammates Sam Alfano and Justin DeZoete were named to NHL Central Scouting Preliminary Players to Watch List last month.
