Brandon Gormely is a blueliner for the Moncton Wildcats who is currently playing in the QMJHL final against the provincial rival Saint John Sea Dogs. Gormley is an all-around blueliner, who excels in both the defensive and offensive zones. He has the ability to supply offense, and doesn’t shy away from contact.

Scouting Report (Puck Prospectus):

Gormley comes with a great set of tools. He is such a good puck-mover and makes quality decisions, time after time, with the puck. He isn’t one-dimensional and will be a tremendous asset on the backend.

Why he’d be a good fit in Columbus:

Gormley is generally considered to be one of the top three blueliners available in the draft. As was the case with Fowler and Gudbranson, Gormley fits the bill as a potential top-pairing defender for Columbus. He is teammates with one of Columbus’ top prospects in Moncton- fellow blueliner David Savard.
