Carlos Ortega (born August 27th, 1999) is a Mayamian-born Valorian professional ice hockey player who currently captains the Mainers and plays for the Valorian National Team. He most often plays as a right wing.
Hailed for his physical prowess, speed, tactical positioning, and precision, Ortega is widely regarded as one of the finest active players in the VHL. He has won the Golden Puck twice, in 2022 and 2023, and led the Mainers to their first VHL title in 2022. That year they nearly completed the Double, making it to the Coupe Balbuzard finals but losing to the Newfoundland Sailors.
