Notes

#11 Julian Luciani played the 2009-2010 season for the Bulls before being traded to Ottawa.

Bulls netminder, Malcolm Subban is the kid brother of PK Subban, defenceman for the Montreal Canadiens. PK also played for the Bulls from 2005-2009.

The youngest brother of the Subban family, Jordan, is currently a top prospect for next year`s OHL selection draft.

Nepean native (and former Jr. A Raiders team-mate) Daniel Altshuller is currently ranked 3rd on the Bulls goaltending chart. However, after backstopping Team Ontario in the U17 Championship, he is knocking at the door.

Belleville Bull Brendan Gaunce is the brother of Cameron Gaunce. Cameron was part of last year`s Mississauga Ice Dog`s roster & is currently playing for Colorado`s AHL team.
