2016-2017 CLL Season

Summary
QUEBEC BECOMES FIRST TWO-TIME CAZAH CUP CHAMPION

The Quebec Bulldogs became the first franchise in CLL history to win two Cazah Cups, led by strong goaltending and a balanced cast. Only a single Quebec skater reached the 60-point plateau (Jakub Voracek, 61 points), but the strong tandem of Sergei Bobrovsky and Cam Talbot combined for 83 wins and 14 shutouts throughout the 2016-17 season and playoffs.

After the Wagon Memorial Trophy winners, the New England Kodiaks, were bounced in the opening round following a close 7-6 matchup with the Wyoming Wizards, it became smooth sailing for the Quebec Bulldogs. The top 3 seeds were all upset in the Quarter-Finals, allowing the Bulldogs to win their remaining matchups swiftly, ending the playoffs with a dominant 26-12-1 record.

Other notable season events:
 * Sustained Dominance: for the third season in a row, Quebec put on an impressive display. Despite finishing just outside the top 3 in the season, the Bulldogs finished at the top again. In three combined seasons, the Bulldogs own an impressive trophy case, including 2 Cazah Cups and 2 Wagon Memorial Trophies.
 * Upset City: the playoffs did not go as many would have anticipated, with the 4th, 6th, 7th, and 8th seeds winning their Quarter-Final matchups, proving anything can happen in CLL playoff hockey.
