2019 -2020 APHL Final Standings

APHL 2019-2020 Season has officially been concluded.

The following is a statement on behalf of Hockey Canada from Tom Renney, chief executive officer, and Scott Smith, president and chief operating officer, on the ongoing coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.

“Without question, this an unprecedented period of difficulty for the sports world. The health and safety of all participants in sport, including players, coaches, staff, officials, fans, family, volunteers and the general public, is of the utmost importance to Hockey Canada.

After much consultation with the Hockey Canada membership, our chief medical officer and public health officials, the Hockey Canada Board of Directors has made the decision to cancel all Hockey Canada-sanctioned activities*, including our national championships, until further notice, effective Friday, March 13, 2020.

We recognize the tremendous effort that has been put forth all year by individuals across the country as they participate in Canada’s game. Although it is difficult to process the hockey season ending abruptly, we feel this is the best course of action in order to do our part in keeping our country safe.”

*Hockey Canada-sanctioned activities include all Hockey Alberta-sanctioned activities (including games, practices, camps and Provincial Championships).

Clarification from Hockey Alberta

Just to clarify the statement, as we’ve had some questions, as of tomorrow, Hockey Canada has cancelled the remainder of the season which includes League Finals, Provincials and National Championships.  The wording that they’ve provided “until further notice” is misleading as we’ve been told the season is done as of tomorrow and all events will not be played.

We thank the host sites for their hard work and dedication in the planning these events and apologize they’re not going to be played.  We understand the disappointment.

Let us know if you have any questions.

Thanks,

Peter Burletoff
