With so many new players, the Gee-Gees will have some growing to do early in the year. But with the right combination of veterans, recruits, and transfers, they have the potential to compete with the perennial powerhouses in the RSEQ, McGill and Université de Montréal.
For these Gee-Gees, the transition from high school to university sports was not an easy one, but they were eager to prove themselves and make their mark.
Despite fighting tooth and nail, the University of Ottawa women’s hockey team couldn’t contest with the likes of the McGill Martlets and were eliminated from the playoffs on Sunday, Feb. 26.
After what can only be viewed as a very successful inaugural season for the remodelled U of O men’s hockey team, the future looks very promising for such a young group.
Despite starting out strong, the Gee-Gees fell apart in the last 20 minutes of the game, allowing the Carabins to score a flurry of goals that let them take the game 6–2.
The Garnet and Grey will have to re-focus after their first loss in almost two months, as they head into the final three games of their regular season.
The University of Ottawa women’s hockey team played their last regular season home game on Saturday, Jan. 28, where they lost to Concordia by a final score of 3–2.
