The Northwest Junior Hockey League announced on Wednesday, Feb. 10, that they will be concluding all regular season play for the remainder of the 2020-21 season. 

Senior and Junior hockey Leagues met with Hockey Alberta on Feb. 8 to review the recent updates from the Government of Alberta.  

The decision by the Leagues and Hockey Alberta to conclude the season was unanimous. 

In a statement released by the NWJHL, they say, “The NWJHL including all 6 teams, though saddened by this news, remains focused and will wait for the AHS restrictions to be lifted in order to get back to on-ice development and exhibition games to put a proper end to a dismal season. 

“The NWJHL would like to express its appreciation to all the teams for hanging in there and remaining positive throughout all this.”
