Ep13 – Pressing “play” again on hockey
A quick update from KMHA on the return to hockey and a word on playoffs.

Jr Ranger Devotees!

 

I’m sure the players are delighted to hear we’ll be returning to hockey.  Thanks for everyone’s fortitude and resilience as we try our best to get back to the game we all love.  From online learning, to restriction whiplash, it’s been hard on everyone.  Thank you for your extra patience and grace with us as coaches, and the league as we try to put on the best program possible, given the circumstances.

 

Update from KMHA

KMHA sent all coaches detailed plans to how to handle close contact cases, including household members as we move to reopen the arenas.  I won’t paste the entire continuity plan here.  But be sure to contact one of the coaches immediately if you have questions or are unsure about a close contact.  We expect cases to come through the team, either directly or indirectly.  So, we’ll have to be nimble and adapt accordingly; including making use of our associated players where allowable.    Hockey will be resuming tomorrow, with our first icetime being our Wednesday practice.  Click here for the KMHA news release.

 

Looks like most of our playdown games have been added back to the schedule.  Please check our schedule here to make sure you have the most up to date information, as some dates/times have been moved.    

 

Also note, because the season is condensed, games have been scheduled right through March Break.  If you have plans to be away, please reach out soon so accommodations can be made for players who are away during that time.

 

Playoffs

Based on where we placed in the first half of the year, we have been placed in Tier1.  We finished one point behind Kitchener Red; not bad!   It’s a tough loop, but we know the boys are up for the challenge.  For the full playoff schedule on the Alliance hockey website click here.

See you back on the rinks in no time.  If you have any questions, please drop me a note.
