Regular Season Wraps Up, Playoffs Begin

This weekend sees your Hometown Jr C Otters play their final two games of the 2022-2023 Regular Season.

The last home game of the regular season is on Friday, March 3rd where the Otters will host the first place Stayner Siskins. Puck drops at 7:30 at the Don Lough Arena. Come out and cheer on your Otters. This match up should prove to be an exciting one. Let’s fill the stands and make some noise for the boys!

The following day, sees the Otters travel to Innisfil on Saturday, March 4th to take on the Spartans in their home barn for the last regular season game for both clubs. These match ups often tend to be spirited between these two teams. Come join us on the road, bringing some hometown support to your Otters. Puck drops at 7:30 at the Innisfil Recreation Complex.

Hard to believe this weekend brings the last of the regular season’s 40 games. This team has proved to be exciting to watch and has brought a competitive edge to the season’s match ups. This group is a relatively new team with many Rookies combined with some returning Vets to round out our roster. We have several local boys as well as quite a few from the surrounding area and from a distance also. They have all come together as a team and collectively have made up a close knit hockey family. This team has been supported by a large group of fans that has grown throughout the season – Huntsville truly is a great hockey town and you have all been so supportive all year. It is so great to see large crowds cheering on these deserving young men all season – many thanks to you all!

After this weekend, we will jump right into playoffs. This part of the season is always an exciting time as each team battles their opponents with the strong desire to win each series and continue to advance one round at a time. The first round for the Otters will see us square off in a 4 out of 7 series against the Schomberg Cougars. The playoff contracts are not yet final, but it is likely Game 1 will take place in Schomberg during the upcoming week, with us returning home next weekend for 2. Once the schedules are confirmed, they will be updated on both our website and the PJHL site.

We look forward to bringing you some exciting playoff action and hope to see you all at the rink!

GO OTTERS GO!!
