After an extended Christmas break in League play due to Covid restrictions the NBPEI Major U18 Hockey League will ease back into games starting February 5th with the Moncton Flyers hosting the Saint John Vitos and the Fredericton Caps at home to the Northern Moose.  

Covid restrictions were eased in both New Brunswick and Prince Edward Island this week. Teams in New Brunswick are permitted to return to games as of January29th whereas the Prince Edward Island teams will be back on the ice but for practices only until further notice from the Islands  Chief Public Health Office. 

League games will continue in NB until the PEI teams are permitted to play games and leave the Island. The League is hopeful that interprovincial play will resume within the next couple weeks in time to have the second league showcase in Fredericton scheduled for February 19th and 20th. 

Check the league schedule for the latest schedule updates.  

As a result of the increased number of Covid cases in both New Brunswick and Prince Edward Island and restrictions imposed by Provincial Health Authorities the NBPEI Major U18 Hockey League has suspended all games until at least January 8th, 2022.  The League will   be revisiting the 2021-2022 schedule over the next few weeks to discuss options for completing the regular season and playoffs leading up to the 2022 Atlantics in Newfoundland.  Any scheduling adjustments will not impact the League's second showcase of the season February 19th and 20th in Fredericton. 

The NBPEIMU18HL received an early Christmas gift this year.  Not one they were hoping for.  With the number of Covid cases increasing throughout the Maritimes, Public Health authorities have restricted playing games and team travel in New Brunswick (at this point) limiting league play to the Prince Edward Island teams.   All games involving New Brunswick teams will be postponed until further notice.  Currently, the Boxing Day and New Years Eve home and home games scheduled between the Knights and Wild will still go as scheduled in both Kensington and Charlottetown respectively.  

The League is hopeful to get back to a full schedule of games early in the New Year.

Due to freezing rain and poor traveling conditions the Flyers - Moose game has been cancelled this evening.   The game will be scheduled at a later date

NBPEI Major U18 Hockey League Game between the Kensington Wild and Moncton Flyers scheduled for November 14th at 4:30 pm has been cancelled due to a scheduling conflict.  The game will be rescheduled and played at a later date.  

The Northern Moose are working through the final preparations for the first NBPEI Major U18 showcase of the season.  The showcase is set to go October 30th and 31st in Bathurst at the KC Irving Regional Centre with all six teams playing two regulation league games over the weekend event.  With Covid restrictions last season league play was limited and showcases couldn't happen. This season the NBPEI Major U18 league has two showcase weekends scheduled. The first at the end of October in Bathurst and the second scheduled for Fredericton, February 18th and 19th. 

Timing of the showcases in conjunction with the Monctonian and IceJam tournaments in November and January respectively, will provide scouts an excellent opportunity to evaluate player development throughout the season. 

Showcase games on Saturday, October 30th will have Fredericton playing Moncton starting at 10:30 am followed by Saint John and Charlottetown and Northern playing Kensington in the final game of the day.  Sunday games start at 9:30 am with Charlottetown and Fredericton followed by Kensington and Saint John in game two of the day and Moncton playing Northern in the final game of the showcase.  

Additional showcase details will be released closer to the event.
