Game Notes

Welcome Back

Sean Monahan and Tyler Graovac will rejoin the 67's on Friday night. Both players were invited to Canada's World Junior camp earlier this week and Calgary but were cut last night. Monahan has been out of the line-up since November 20th and Graovac has missed the last 4 home games. Both players will bring back some firepower to the 67's line-up and are still 2 of the top 3 scorers this season for the 67's.

Minor Hockey Toque Night

We have partnered with our friends at Broadway Bar and Grill to give away 2000 67's toques to minor hockey players at Friday's game. Broadway is a proud sponsor of minor hockey in the Ottawa area.

Home Depot Promotions
