Centennial Cup Changing Formats This Year

, , , , , , , , , , , ,

Whoever wins the Bill Salonen Cup will book a trip to Estevan, Saskatchewan.

The Superior International Junior Hockey League (SIJHL), in conjunction with Hockey Canada and the Canadian Junior Hockey League (CJHL), announced a revised format for the 2022 Centennial Cup.

The tournament will begin May 19th and will feature the host Bruins (SJHL), as well as all nine champions of the other leagues.

As a result, traditional CJHL regional championships – including the Dudley-Hewitt Cup, previously scheduled to be hosted by the Red Lake Miners – will not be contested this season.

“We just weren’t sure what the traditional format would look like in this environment,” said SIJHL Commissioner Darrin Nicholas. “With leagues giving indications they weren’t going to be able to participate in regionals this season as a result of the delays in completing their schedules, the CJHL board recognized it needed to find a way to relieve some pressure and uncertainty from the host committees.”

As of now, there is no plan for a 10-team national championship beyond this year, and Red Lake would have the first right-of-refusal to host a rescheduled Dudley-Hewitt Cup in May of 2023.

CJHL Still Looking At September Start

, , ,

The President of the Canadian Junior Hockey League says he’s aiming for a September start for all member leagues, including the Superior International Junior Hockey League.

Brent Ladds says they are using the unprecedented times of COVID-19 to focus on the upcoming season and what that might look like.

Ladds says “There is a possibility of staggered openings, which impacts registration and cut-down regulations, so giving consideration to a number of scenarios, we have had to redesign time tables for guidelines, that would address those possibilities, which we have done with the assistance of Hockey Canada, and their members.

He notes resuming normal operations depend on the proper approvals from federal, provincial and regional health authorities.

Ladds adds they stay closely tuned to the daily national and provincial health reports to ensure that they are able to react accordingly.
