The Ottawa Redblacks will open the 2023 CFL season on the road against the Montreal Alouettes on June 10, 2023. 

Tim Stützle scored two goals and added two assists, while Alex DeBrincat and Claude Giroux also found the back of the net for the visitors.

The 2023 tournament will have its earliest start date as matches get underway on April 18, less than a week after the fifth season of the Canadian Premier League (CPL) kicks off.

Barnes, the reigning rookie of the year in the NBA, is averaging 15.7 points, 7.1 rebounds and 4.8 assists in 49 games this season.

Also Tuesday, in first-round action at the Copa Oster in Cali, Colombia, seventh seed Carol Zhao of Toronto was defeated by Colombia's Emiliana Arango.

Green is coming off Tommy John surgery last June and it’s unclear when in 2023 he’ll be ready to pitch.

Hunter joined the Redblacks as a free agent in 2022 and was limited to 12 games.

"I am very pleased to announce the signing of Karl Ouimette," said Fernando López the chief executive officer of Atlético Ottawa. "Karl is an experienced defender that has played throughout North America and is sure to bring even greater quality to our strong backline. His 18 appearances for Canada and track record of performing in high-pressure environments will be key as Atlético Ottawa push for more titles in the coming years." 

The 112-match CPL season will see the eight teams play a 28-match schedule. Each club will play all seven opponents twice at home and twice on the road over the course of the season.

Toronto was led by Fred VanVleet's 24 points and nine assists. Gary Trent Jr. added 21 points while Pascal Siakam had 19.
