It was a less-eventful weekend for the LA Kings’ OHL contingent overall, but defenseman Brandt Clarke did excel with three assists.

Another weekend in the OHL has come and gone. Here’s what each of the three LA Kings prospects had to show for themselves.

Brandt Clarke

Overall, Brandt Clarke had a solid showing this weekend. The Kings’ 1st-round pick in 2021 registered three assists on Thursday night in St. Catharines. Unfortunately for Clarke and the Barrie Colts, they fell flat against the Niagara Ice Dogs, losing by an 8-5 count.

The Colts fared no better on Sunday as they were shut out, 3-0, by the Ottawa 67’s.

In those two games combined, Clarke finished with a minus-4 rating and seven shots on goal.

The Colts fall to 2-4-1 on the year.

Francesco Pinelli

The Kitchener Rangers had four games this past week, although Francesco Pinelli only played in the latter two.

On Friday night, the Rangers capped off a thrilling 3-2 shootout win against the Windsor Spitfires to improve to 5-0-0 on the season. Unfortunately, the undefeated streak was snapped on Sunday thanks to a 4-2 loss at the hands of the Guelph Storm.

In the latter outing, Pinelli had an assist and four shots on goal but did finish the contest with a minus-1 rating. On Friday, while he was held pointless, the Kings prospect was a plus-one and finished 7-for-18 in the faceoff circle.

The Rangers are now 5-1-0 on the year.

UP NEXT: @ Sault Ste Marie (Oct 29), vs Sault Ste Marie (Oct 30)

It should be exciting!
