OHL Alumni Central

David Cornacchia played in the Ontario Hockey League from 1997-98 to 2000-01. He started his career with the Sudbury Wolves and was traded to the Sarnia Sting in 1998-99. The next season, 1999-00, David was traded from the Sting to the Belleville Bulls where he finished out his OHL career.

Cornacchia has fallen off the face of the hockey world, according to hockeydb.com. However, we’ve tracked him down playing in the Netherlands for Destil Trappers Tilburg (Tilburg Trappers). In the Dutch league, David is a point per game defenceman on a team that is in the top three of an eight team league.

Along the way, David has had stints in the ECHL, AHL, CHL, Germany’s DEL and Austria’s Erste Bank Eishockey Liga. The journey from the OHL to the Dutch league placed him on 10 different teams in 4 countries.

If you need help with a translation, you can always try Google Translate (just google it). There will be a Dutch language guide coming out on OHL Alumni Central. Currently there is just a German one with more to come.
