The summer signings continue for the Soo Greyhounds.

The team announced this afternoon that 2023 14th-round pick Keegan Gillen has inked an Ontario Hockey League agreement with the club.

“Keegan had an outstanding year at Little Caesars U16, earning trust with significant ice time in all situations, which greatly advanced his development," Greyhounds general manager Kyle Raftis said in a release. "As a defender, he excels in his ability to see the ice and is highly effective not only in transition with a sharp first pass but also in controlling the blueline with a powerful shot."

The 17-year-old from Amherstberg, Ont., had seven goals and 31 points in 56 regular season games with Little Caesars in 2023-24.

Gillen called signing with the Greyhounds an "incredible opportunity."
