Zach Gallant and Ryan Merkley COMPELLED TO HELP were two of eight players to appear in two categories. One of the Petes’ most recent on-ice success stories is defenceman and assistant captain of the Buffalo Sabres Zach Bogosian. Although Peterborough players were recognized in the Eastern Conference as the 28 year old’s career has largely been defined by his on-ice skills, follows: the powerful rear guard is foremost a philanthropist whose quest to help others makes him a standout among his NHL colleagues. ◘ Hunter Jones, Most Improved Player (3rd) ◘ Ryan Merkley, Best Playmaker (3rd) and Best Offensive Zach’s atypical journey to the Petes began at Cushing Academy, Defenceman (2nd) a college prepatory school in Ashburnham, Massachusetts.

He recalled attending an Ottawa 67’s game as a child and being fixated on the increased intensity of an OHL game and hysteria throughout the 10,000 seat Civic Centre (now TD Place Arena), a slice of elite hockey he desired. In drafting Zach to the Petes, previous general manager Jeff Twohey’s journey begins with a former Oshawa General - Bobby Orr. “Bobby Orr, who was his agent at the time, had a lot of our players - Eric and Jordan Staal, Steve Downie - and so Bobby used to come to a lot of games. I used to sit in a suite, and one day [while Bobby was at a game] out of the blue he said to me, ‘Listen I got a young guy playing in Boston that I would like you to come look at’,” explained Twohey. At the time Zach was a young, fifth ranked defenseman at Cushing Academy who failed to hit the radar of junior scouts. Following a trip down to Massachusetts, Twohey determined that Zach maintained a wealth of unlocked potential. “So I phoned Bobby and I said, ‘Listen, he’s a pretty good player, would you mind if I drove down to Massena and met his parents?,’ and Bobby said, ‘Go ahead’.” Following a dinner with Zach’s parents, Vicky and Ike, Jeff sensed only half the duo was sold on the dream of being a Pete.
