    The rosters for the GOHL Top Prospects Game and the 2026 Connor McDavid OHL Top Prospects Game have been unveiled. Now, the OHL has announced the rosters for the U16 Top Prospects Showcase. 

    The U16 Top Prospects Showcase will be held on Jan. 13 and 14 at the Miskin Law Community Complex in Peterborough. This showcase is an opportunity for some of the top U16 Ontario-based prospects to showcase their skills in front of OHL scouts so they can hear their names called in June at the in-person, live 2026 OHL Priority Selection draft event in Kingston. 

    The rosters were formulated by all 20 OHL teams to provide lists of the top draft-eligible players they wanted to see partake in the two-day showcase. 80 players will be at the event, split between four teams: Team McDavid, Team Byfield, Team Suzuki, and Team Tavares. 

    The showcase schedule is as follows:

    Tuesday, Jan. 13

    Team Tavares vs. Team McDavid @2pm
    Team Byfield vs. Team Suzuki @4pm

    Wednesday, Jan. 14

    Team McDavid vs. Team Byfield @1pm
