It's an Ottawa Black Bears Gameday! The Black Bears are kicking off 2025 with a road game against the San Diego Seals tonight at 10:00 p.m. ET. Tonight's game will be the first and only meeting between the two teams this season.
Most recently, the Black Bears came away with a 12-11 victory over the Toronto Rock last Saturday. It was a thrilling back and forth game as the two teams exchanged goal after goal, before the Rock took a three-goal lead late in the game.

Jacob Dunbar tallied four goals while Jeff Teat recorded a seven-point night to help propel the Black Bears to victory. A full breakdown of the game can be found HERE.
