Ottawa 67's Vs. London Knights February 20, 2017

Monday February 20, 2017 TD Place, Ottawa Ontario Ottawa 67’s* (20-29-6, 8 th in Eastern Conference)   Vs. London Knights (36-11-7, 3 rd in Western Conference)                                                                 Claus Anderson-Getty Images  This is game is a story of teams going in two different directions in the standings.
