The Kitchener Rangers have signed forward Jack LaBrash from Belleville.

LaBrash is the club’s second-round pick, 35th overall, in the 2024 Under-18 OHL Priority Selection.

The 6-foot-5 and 195-pound lefty said he is “super honoured to sign with such a great organization, and am looking forward to a great season ahead.”

“Jack had a very good showing at our development camp and showed a blend of size, skill, smarts and work ethic,” said General Manager Mike McKenzie. “We feel he has all the tools to be a good player for us and look forward to seeing him in a Ranger uniform. Welcome to Kitchener Jack and the LaBrash family.”

LaBrash played for the Upper Canada Cyclones U18 team this past season, with nine goals and 24 assists in 29 games.
