No, since the OHA isn't affiliated with the NHL. (at least I don't think it is. Please correct me if I am wrong.)
it looks like you are right. the nhl doesn't appear to be affiliated with any of the canadian hockey leagues.
i looked a little more, and i can't find any news of this on any professional hockey site. not even the ohl. i'm disappointed that i never would have known this had happened if i didn't google it. when a player dies playing your sport, it seems to me you should pay him at least some respect, even if you don't like the connotations that some people would put with it.
