Toronto – The Ontario Hockey League today announced that a media conference is scheduled for Sunday at 5:00 p.m. at the WFCU Centre in Windsor, Ontario, to announce the winner of the Mickey Renaud Captain’s Trophy for the 2009-10 season.

Former Erie Otters captain Zack Torquato is nominated for the honor, which is awarded to the OHL member team captain that best exemplifies leadership on or off the ice, as well as hard work, passion and a dedication to the game of hockey and their community that Mickey demonstrated.

The formation of the award was announced last February at the 2009 Subway OHL All-Star Classic in Windsor.  Renaud, who passed away in February 2008, was named the Spitfires’ captain at the start of the 2007-08 season. The winner was determined by a panel of four media members representing each of the four OHL divisions.
