Sztuska, a 5’11”, 160 lbs goalie, was selected by the Petes in the fifth round, 94th overall in the 2020 OHL Priority Selection.

The Mississauga, Ontario native suited up for the Toronto Titans in the Greater Toronto Hockey League (GTHL) during the 2019-20 season. The 2004-born left catcher is eligible for the upcoming 2022NHL Entry Draft.

"I'm at a loss for words,” said Sztuska. “This is something I have been dreaming of since I was a kid and now it's a dream come true. I'm looking forward to seeing the fans, the players, the coaching staff, and getting out on the ice and finally getting started."

“We’re very excited to add Liam to our organization,” said Oke. “He’s a promising young goaltender who we believe can make an impact at the OHL level.”

Sztuska, who was the first goalie the Petes selected in the 2020 OHL Priority Selection, joins Donovan McCoy, Sam Alfano, and Justin DeZoete as players who committed to the maroon and white from the 2020 draft.
