Colts beat 67’s, facing off against Brantford in Eastern Conference finals

We kind of all knew it would end like this, didn’t we?

The Brantford Bulldogs, Barrie Colts and Ottawa 67’s occupied the top three spots in the OHL’s Eastern Conference nearly all year long.

And unsurprisingly, they all made it into the conference’s semifinals.

The Colts, the second-seed, needed five games to dispense of the 67’s, while the top-seed Bulldogs swept North Bay.

The Eastern Conference final series opened earlier this week, with Brantford taking Game 1 4-3. Game 2 is set for tomorrow.
