"The Oshawa Generals entered the OHL Priority Selection Draft Lottery with a 40% chance of earning the top pick, having finished the season in last place with just 42 points."
"This marks the first time since 2005 that the Generals hold the top pick, a year when they selected John Tavares, who became the OHL's all-time top goalscorer."
"Kade O'Rourke has been seen as a potential favorite to go first overall, although the OHL has not yet granted him the exceptional status required to be selected a year early."
"The 2026 OHL Priority Selection will take place at the Slush Puppie Place, home of the Kingston Frontenacs, from June 12-13."
Oshawa Generals have been awarded the top pick in the OHL Priority Selection Draft after finishing last in the league with a 19-45-3-1 record.

The Generals had a 40% chance of winning the lottery, while other non-playoff teams had lower odds. Kade O'Rourke is a potential favorite for the first overall pick, pending the league's decision on his exceptional status. The draft will occur on June 12-13 at Slush Puppie Place.
