Sticking to the canons is nice for writing fics that are very limited to say a relationship or something but if you want to write say a Harry Potter fic that continues where the Epilogue left off...between other students, new teachers and the like DAYUM that's a lot of OCs you'll need.
Usually with continuations if you want them to feel natural you have to have mentions of people they interact with. OCs aren't just the mysterious angsty new character who takes hold of the plot. They can be just the pizza guy, the kid in math class that a canon is stuck tutoring etc. and those characters are most certainly needed to avoid creating a story that feels like it's taking place in a jar. To create a sense of the real world.
It really depends on the story you're trying to tell as well. Some story types do lend themselves to focusing on canons. and others require a few spaces to be filled.
