Dellandrea was drafted in the first round, fifth overall, by the Flint Firebirds in the 2016 OHL Priority Selection.[1]

He appeared in his first career OHL game on September 21, 2016, scoring a goal against Brendan Bonello of the Saginaw Spirit 63 seconds into the game, as the Firebirds defeated the Spirit 4-0. He began his OHL career with points in each of his first five games. On October 15, Dellandrea scored his first career OHL multi-goal game, as he had two goals and added an assist in a 5-3 loss to the Barrie Colts. Dellandrea finished the 2016-17 season with 13 goals and 24 points in 57 games. On March 23, Dellandrea suited up for his first career post-season game, as he was held off the score sheet in a 5-2 loss to the Sault Ste. Marie Greyhounds. Six days later, Dellandrea earned his first career OHL playoff point, assisting on a goal scored by Kole Sherwood in a 5-2 loss to the Sault Ste. Marie Greyhounds. In five playoff games, Dellandrea earned an assist.

Following the season, Dellandrea was named the Firebirds MVP and awarded the Combined Academic & Athletics Excellence award, having earned a 4.0 grade point average while attending Grand Blanc High School.[2]

In 2019-20, Dellandrea returned to Flint for a fourth season, remaining the captain of the team.[3] On November 20, Dellandrea recorded the second hat-trick of his OHL career, as he scored three goals in a 6-4 loss to the Sarnia Sting. Just over two weeks later, on December 5, Dellandrea recorded another hat-trick, as he scored three goals, and added an assist, in a 5-2 win over the Barrie Colts. On January 19, Dellandrea tied his career-high for points in a game, as he scored two goals and added three assists for five points, in a 8-5 win over the Kingston Frontenacs.
