Cole Guizzetti to Flint
He is a 5 foot 6 spark plug with skill and strength who can score and skate with the best of them. And Sault Ste. Marie product Cole Guizzetti was today picked by the Flint Firebirds in the third round of the 2026 Ontario Hockey League priority selections draft.
An electrifying forward, Guizzetti left his home in the Sault two years ago to play at the Ontario prep school level for Upper Canada College.
And the youngster has been nothing short of a sensation since departing the Sault Major Hockey Association for Upper Canada College by averaging two points per game — showing that size can be overcome.
In going to Flint, Guizzetti will have the opportunity to develop with an OHL franchise that has gained considerable good repute over the years.
Notably, Sault Ste. Marie resident Mike Oliverio is the head scout for the OHL Firebirds.
