Scouting Report:
Martindale was tested early on in the season when the 67’s were bombarded with injuries. Despite missing some key teammates, he got off to a good start. Martindale is tall player who is still growing into his body. Once he adds some weight, he could become a valuable physical threat. For his size, Martindale’s skating is pretty decent but he is not as naturally smooth as others ranked above him. Martindale’s size allows him to drive to the net and make more space for himself. He could be more consistent with his physical play, but is the type of player that will go into the corners and fight along the boards to get the puck. Martindale’s two-way game has improved since his first two seasons in the OHL, which he has been rewarded by racking up lots of ice-time on both the powerplay and penalty kill. He is often the first forward back in his zone and is willing to sacrifice his body to block a shot. Martindale sometimes has the tendency to look like he’s floating around and just waiting for a pass rather than getting into the rush right away. That being said, Martindale has great vision and excellent playmaking skills. He has an accurate shot, but could improve by putting more speed on it.

I did some research and here is some information and scouting reports on what Ottawa 67’s can look forward to.
From OHL Prospects Magazine:
Scouting Report: Monahan is an offensive minded center that possesses a solid collection of physical tools. He has size, an excellent stick and he skates quite well, displaying speed and quickness. He tends to play more of a finesse type of game, using his speed to get himself into the open ice. He is a very good skater, possessing a smooth stride that allows him to generate some speed. He likes to have the puck on his stick, and that is when he is the most noticeable. He carries the puck with confidence, and isnt afraid to attack a defender on-on-one. OHL Cup MVP.
From TheScoutingReport.org:
2010 OHL Priority Selection 1st Round Mock Draft Sean Monahan is a player that has been discussed to great lengths due to his phenomenal performance at the 2010 OHL Cup. He was initially seen as a player who would go in the top 80 in this season’s draft class, but has really made a name for himself since the tournament. Monahan has a good skill set with good size, but at times gets flustered and makes poor decisions. Consistency is a major issue for Monahan and is something that has people worried. At times he needs to compete harder and work harder on the back check, as he likes to loop instead of stopping and starting.
Sean Monahan just came off an impressive showing at the 2010 OHL Cup Showcase Tournament in March. Monahan captained the tournament champion Mississauga Rebels. Monahan scored the game-winning goal as the Mississauga Rebels shocked the heavily favoured & defending champion Toronto Marlboros in a 2-1 victory. Monahan had a two points in the game and took home the Tim Adams Memorial Trophy as the tournament’s Most Valuable Player. He was also the tournament’s leading scorer with 13 points in 7 games (7g, 6a).
