As of January 5th, 2022 there will be no exhibition games allowed for Hockey Winnipeg teams until they are eliminated from the HW Playoffs.  Any exhibition game requests that were previously approved will be revoked and no new exhibition game requests will be accepted.  Any exhibition game requests that could take place after playoff elimination will be considered pending.  Any teams that participate in unsanctioned exhibition games will be subject to discipline from their Area Association and/or Hockey Winnipeg. 

 

Hockey Winnipeg is taking this step in order to prioritize our regular season and playoff schedule.  We must to do everything we can to protect our schedule and this is a necessary step.  This will also help our assignors in filling regular season and playoff officials assignments, which has been an issue. 

 

Game Cancellation Policy

 

As of January 5th, 2022 there will be no rescheduling of games that are canceled due to covid-19.  Those games will be recorded as cancelled and no points will be awarded to either team.

 

Playoff seeding will be calculated in a way that is most fair to all teams and will be communicated to all divisions in February.
