Lumber Kings Win Their Way Into The Post-Season

Eric Barnard returned to the Pembroke Lumber Kings line-up on the final day of the regular season and had a goal and an assist as the Lumber Kings edged the Ottawa Junior Senators 4-3 to secure the final playoff spot in the Central Canada Hockey League. Sutton Murray scored twice for the Kings, including the game winner midway through the third period as the Kings delighted a home town crowd of more than 1400 fans with a win that sends them to a matchup with the league leading Navan Grads.

Lumber Kings Playoff Hopes To Be Decided On Final Day of Regular Season

It will be this simple for the Pembroke Lumber Kings on the final day of the Central Canada Hockey League season-win and you're in!  The Lumber Kings will face the Ottawa Junior Senators on Sunday, March 17th at 2 p.m. at the Pembroke Memorial Centre, needing two points to secure the final post-season spot in the CCHL. If they get one point, it will be enough to force a one game play-in with the Kemptville 73's who currently hold the last playoff position.

The Kings ended up in this situation after dropping their last five games as part of a brutal schedule that saw them play almost every night of the final week of the regular season. On Friday night in Smiths Falls, the Kings opted to rest several of their top players including defencemen Easton Penna, captain Nathan Duck and starting goaltender Kevin Jones.  The Kings fell 4-1 to the Bears.

 

Kemptville has completed its regular season.  The 73's have 54 points.  The Kings have 53 points. The season finale for the Kings is a redemption ticket game meaning any unused tickets from the 2023-24 season can be used to gain entry to the game.
