After a delayed game and a disappointing loss to the Peterborough Petes, the Ottawa 67′s bounced back on Sunday and defeated the Erie Otters by a score of 6-1. This game shouldn’t have been tough, and it really wasn’t, as Erie has struggled this season to say the least. They hove only 8 wins on [...]
“I’m Not Even Supposed To Be Here Today!” as 67′s Fall To Petes
February 19, 2012 – 7:58 am
The title of this post is a catchphrase to one of my favorite director’s (Kevin Smith) first movie, Clerks. It is fitting for Saturday’s game, as it wasn’t on the schedule, but forced due to the infamous leaky roof at the J Benson Cartage Centre on Friday night that caused the postponement of the Peterborough-Ottawa [...]

February 11, 2012 – 7:58 am
For the last 5 minutes of the game on Friday night, the Ottawa 67′s showed why they should be considered a contender for the OHL championship in this year’s playoffs. Unfortunately, their play in the first 55 minutes against the Guelph Storm had put them in a hole that they couldn’t escape from. The 67′s [...]

67′s Outworked As They Give One Away To Frontenacs
February 4, 2012 – 5:54 pm
So I guess the 67′s won’t be wearing the sleek blue barber pole jerseys again any time soon. Despite dominating the first period, the 67′s could only come away with a 1-0 lead, thanks to Shane Prince‘s 30th of the season. Igor Bobkov was the difference as he made 14 first period saves to keep [...]

February 3, 2012 – 11:23 pm
In what was an exciting but low-scoring game, the Ottawa 67′s managed to eke out a slim 3-2 victory. The game was highlighted by stellar goaltending, and for the first half of the game it looked like a 0-0 tie was in the offing. However, Sean Monahan opened the scoring on a nice feed from [...]
