Attack’s Mbuyi sets club record for points by a rookie

Pierce Mbuyi scored twice in Guelph on Friday, steering the Owen Sound Attack to a 7-2 road win over the Storm.

With his 27th and 28th goals of the season, Mbuyi swelled his point total to 48 (28-20–48) over 59 games to establish a new Attack club record by a rookie. The mark surpasses the previous record of 47 points set by Colby Barlow in 2021-22.

Mbuyi, from Mississauga, was selected by the Attack with the seventh pick of the 2024 OHL Priority Selection from the Toronto Marlboros U16 program. His scoring prowess was evident at the U16 AAA level where he tied an OHL Cup record last spring, producing six points (4-2–6) in a game.

Mbuyi was named the OHL Rookie of the Month for February with 17 points (9-8–17) over 13 games.

The playoff-hungry Attack are back in action on Saturday, playing host to the Kitchener Rangers at the Bayshore.

Mbuyi claims title for Attack Franchise Record for Most Points by a 16-year old. The 'true rookie' record was previously head by Attack Alumni Joey Hishon and Colby Barlow. 💪🏆#AlwaysAttack #OwenSoundAttack pic.twitter.com/83xJRx6cdO
