67's Rebuild Comparison Part 3: QMJHL's Gatineau Olympiques
Less than a month from now, the Ottawa 67's and Gatineau Olympiques renew hostilities in a pair of exhibition games. It wasn't long ago that the CHL refused to allow the two teams to play each other due to matchups being too violent. It also wasn't long ago that these two squads went on long playoff runs, with Gatineau going to the President's Cup finals in 2011 and Ottawa going three rounds in 2012. Now, they appear to both be back on the upswing in their rebuilds.

67's Rebuild Comparison Part 2: Kingston Frontenacs
Two seasons ago, the Ottawa 67's and Kingston Frontenacs, longtime bitter rivals, were left picking up the pieces as they combined for one playoff win between them, both in seasons with plenty of expectation.
The difference was that Ottawa had one more year left in their contending window, while it's the closest Kingston's been to contention since. However, many are now considering the Fronts to be the future class of the OHL with their strong crop of young players. As Ottawa's biggest rival and a team to be reckoned with in the next few years, the Frontenacs are a great team to compare to the 67's.
