F Orca Wiesblatt - Calgary Hitmen, WHL (2018 undrafted)

[Killerjas]

One of the Wiesblatt boys (Orca) has just signed for the Calgary Hitmen, making (hopefully) his debut in the WHL. Plays forward and he has gotten 11 points in 16 games in the AJHL this season.

Anyone know how he has performed over the last couple of seasons? What are the chances that he gets drafted this year?

I'll be severely disappointed if he doesn't get drafted by the Canucks.

On the topic of the Wiesblatts, there's a 4th one now?! And his name is Oasiz? What the f***? Are their parents illiterate?

No, but they are deaf.

Update: Orca has made his debute for Calgary Hitmen. Right now he has played 33 games, scoring 5 times and assisted 6 times, bringing his point total to 11.

Chances of him getting drafted are very, very slim.

Orca is lucky he didn't have a twin- possibly could have been called sperm...(yeah, thats a bad joke lol!!)

Orca and Ocean had some hype when they were younger and unfortunately won't get to the big leagues unless quite a turnaround happens. However, Ozzy looks like he could be a good one.

His brother Ozzy will be a stud.. Really impressive player

 

[LeafChief]

These names though..

 

[Wings4Life]

Hats off to the parents...and the kids, for not changing their names lol

 

[McDNicks17]

I feel like Ozzy must be short for something else because it seems way too normal of a name for that family

 

[Stive Morgan]

No, but they are deaf.

It's months later and I now just found out that they actually are deaf, and you weren't just making a joke. I feel bad now.

 

[Stive Morgan]

Orca's got a lot of skill but he needs to put it all together to make the big leagues.

No worries mate

Whale of a shot?

Lol. Jokes aside, I actually was quite impressed with his shot. I also like how hard he battles in front of the net. Almost reminds me of Gallagher a little bit.

 

[DeflatedFootball7]

The Weisblatt brothers got way too much early hype. Still lot of time obviously, but Ocean is struggling to score in Jr. A and Orca is middling in the WHL.

That said, Ozzy and Oasiz have better numbers than the older two at the same age so who knows.

 

[Killerjas]

1 point in his last 10 games. Ouch!

 

[Jonas1235]

Hitmen are awful. I know this just by following their twitter. The whole team has, trouble swimming right now.

 

[Passchendaele]

It's kinda ironic that neither Ocean or Orca will play in the NHL, but Ozzy probably will.

 

[Killerjas]

Ended the 2017-2018 season with 13 points (5 goals and 8 assists) in 49 games. Calgary had a rough season, lets see what this "big fish" can do this season!

 

[CraigBillington]

As long as he has that killer instinct, I think he'll be fine

 

[Stud Puffin]

Has been cut by the Hitmen. Not sure where he goes from here. Blew his commitment to Vermont to play for the Hitmen and now he has crapped out in the Dub.

 

[Stive Morgan]

Weird. Thought he'd be a decent scorer at the WHL level. Also the fact that's he's a local kid. Surprised they cut him.

On the other hand, Ozzy looks to be the real deal.
