Hockey Winnipeg has been monitoring the local road conditions throughout the day.  There were many highway closures earlier, but now highways are beginning to open up again and the conditions are continually improving.

We are reluctant to outright cancel games at this point.  For tonight, please consider all games to be going ahead.

Note to teams who are scheduled to play tonight: before you depart please check Manitoba 511 to see if your routes of travel are open.  If they are closed then please stay home and we will reschedule the games. If they are open, you may make your own decision if the conditions are safe for travel – as you would with a commute to work, school, etc.  We will not punish teams for making a safety decision if they feel that it is dangerous to drive.

Thank you,

Ian McArton

Executive Director, Hockey Winnipeg
