Ever have an odd number of players while playing hockey on a backyard rink? Can’t find a goalie to tend the nets while your child skates through the backyard of your home?

Well you’re in luck because this winter, your first place Ottawa 67’s are breaking out of The Arena at TD Place and are on the lookout for the best backyard rink in Ottawa. The boys are excited to skate on your backyard rink and show off some of their skills they put to use on game days.

Think your backyard rink is the best in Ottawa? Take a photo of your backyard rink, and if it’s chosen, you’ll get to play alongside some of the 67’s players in an epic game of shinny – on your home ice.

To finish off an already awesome day, Riley Raccoon will make a special appearance with prizes for everyone!

Contest closes on January 31 at 11:59 p.m. The winning rink will be chosen during the first week of February.
