Ottawa 67s 2024-25 Season Thread, Part I

[44 95 plus tax]

Looks like Stonehouse is currently in Ottawa. Since he would be at the stage where he is getting ready for a return (no contact - shoulder rehab), if he were going to be assigned to the ECHL or AHL, he’d likely be whether he is going to be reassigned. Since he is in Ottawa, it points to him being reassigned to Ottawa once he is ready to play.

I saw him at the game on Saturday.

Can confirm Stonehouse returned last Wednesday.Although he’s not technically supposed to be cleared to play until Nov 1 against Guelph he is feeling 100% and passing all tests could be back sooner.

Wow sounds like he'll be back way sooner than expected. Good for him as will be able to get back to speed earlier. From the 67's perspective it gives them options to trade whoever has the greatest value at deadline ( or hopefully before). If we can get good assets for one or even two OA's and maybe Pinelli it will help to set up the future. I agree with OMG though that Sirman might be out of luck sooner than expected. Too bad good kid.

What do you mean didn’t have a chance? Did you stop watching the game after the first?

There is 3 periods to watch and OT. Fronts outshot them after the first and Nelson played real well. Kingston guy got tripped up on OT and no call (probably because they already waved off 1 goal) and then Ottawa scored the winner.

As I said and I’ll say it again. It was back and forth with the exception of the first period but even after the first you were only leading by 1 goal lol.

Not sure what game Hinterland was watching, but I would agree that while Ottawa seemed to dominate the first period, Kingston was much better in the second and third and actually controlled much of the play for long stretches in both those periods. They also had puck possession for most of overtime as Ottawa couldn't win a faceoff to save their lives. Overall, this was an entertaining and pretty even game that either team could have easily won.
