"The Brantford Bulldogs are loading up after starting their season with a 11-0-2-1 record -- they have not lost in regulation through their first 14 games and own the OHL's best .893 point percentage. Additionally, the Bulldogs have scored the most goals in the league so far this season, with 75, while also allowing the fourth-fewest with just 47 goals allowed."
"Danford will easily supply that blue line with even more stability while being one of the most physical defenders in the OHL. The 19-year-old right-handed defenseman was a first-round pick of the Maple Leafs in the 2024 NHL Draft, going 31st overall. And last season, while captaining the Oshawa Generals, scored five goals and 25 points from the blue line in 61 games. He also earned a total of 68 penalty minutes and earned a plus-5 rating."
Ben Danford has been moved from the Oshawa Generals to the Brantford Bulldogs along with Zackary Sandhu in a multi-player deal that sent Aiden O'Donnell, Lucas Moore and draft picks the other way. Brantford enters the season 11-0-2-1, undefeated in regulation through 14 games, leading the OHL with a .893 points percentage while scoring 75 goals and allowing 47. Danford is a 19-year-old, right-handed defenseman and a 2024 first-round pick (31st overall) by the Toronto Maple Leafs. He captained Oshawa last season, posting five goals, 25 points, 68 penalty minutes and a plus-5 rating, and projects as a physical, stabilizing presence on Brantford’s blue line as the team pursues OHL and Memorial Cup contention.
