The Prince George Cougars have signed forward Ollie Reid to a WHL Scholarship and Development Agreement.
The Coldstream, BC product was the Cougars’ fourth round, 88th overall selection in the 2024 WHL Prospects Draft.
In 27 games with the Yale U15 Prep team this past season, Reid notched 52 points. (22G, 30A)
“To have Ollie commit to the Cougars is huge,” said Director of Scouting Bob Simmonds.
“Having commitment from our first three draft picks in the 09 group really bodes well for the future. Ollie is a very skilled player, His ability to play in small ice situations is exceptional. His puck management is a strong part of his game and he has great hands and habits. Ollie is a very smart player who thinks the game at a high level.”
The Reid family has rich sports heritage, mostly in football.
Ollie’s grandfather, Barrie, played in the CFL, while his father Ryan was a quarterback in Arena Football.
