Brennan Othmann's story
Growing up in Ontario, Brennan Othmann made his mark early as a goal-scoring winger with a feisty edge. He rose through the Greater Toronto Hockey League before stepping into major-junior action with the Flint Firebirds of the OHL, earning a spot on the league’s rookie all-star team in 2019–20. When the OHL season was cancelled, he moved to Switzerland for playing time with HC Olten in the Swiss League.
Selected 16th overall by the New York Rangers in the 2021 NHL Entry Draft, Othmann signed a three-year entry-level contract on 12 August 2021. He impressed at Rangers training camp and won the Lars-Erik Sjöberg Award as the club’s top rookie in camp, yet was returned to Flint to continue developing. His response was emphatic: 50 goals and 47 assists in 2021–22 and a place on the OHL First All-Star Team as a left wing.
Flint traded him to the Peterborough Petes on 12 November 2022. Othmann finished the regular season in Peterborough with 18 goals and 25 assists in 40 games, then led the Petes in the playoffs with 25 points in 23 games as they captured the OHL championship. The Petes advanced to the 2023 Memorial Cup in Kamloops but were knocked out in the semi-final by the Seattle Thunderbirds.
Entering professional ranks, Othmann began the 2023–24 campaign with the AHL’s Hartford Wolf Pack and made his NHL debut on 4 January 2024 in a 4–1 win over the Chicago Blackhawks. He split time between Hartford and New York over subsequent seasons, notching his first NHL point with an assist on 22 March 2025 and scoring his first NHL goal on 17 January 2026 versus the Philadelphia Flyers. On 6 March 2026 he was traded to the Calgary Flames in exchange for Jacob Battaglia.
Internationally, Othmann was part of Canada’s squad for the rescheduled 2022 World Juniors and won gold; he returned for the 2023 tournament, contributing two goals and four assists in seven games and another gold medal. On the ice he is known for a strong scoring touch, a compact but accurate shot, and willingness to play both ends of the ice with competitiveness.
