Huckson heading to Flint
Free agent defenseman Colton Huckson — who has a late December, 2008 birth date — is slated to attend the upcoming Ontario Hockey League training camp of the Flint Firebirds. Mike Oliverio, who is the head scout for the OHL Firebirds, confirmed to Hockey News North that Huckson, who is a Sault Ste. Marie product, has been invited to Flint for next week’s camp.
Classified as a progressive young player of note, the 6 foot 2, 170 pound Huckson recently signed with the Soo Eagles of the Northern Ontario Jr. Hockey League ahead of the ’25-26 season. He played in four NOJHL games with the Eagles in ’24-25 as an affiliate player.
Huckson stands to gain OHL training camp experience in Flint after an impressive season at the AAA Under 18 level with the Soo Indians in ’24-25. From his blue line position, Huckson had five goals, 22 assists, 27 points in 59 games for the Indians over the course of the ’24-25 season.
Congrats Bobby! Good invite by Flint.
Congratulations Colton !!’ I hope you have a great Camp
