PRINCE GEORGE – The Prince George Cougars will be back on the ice at the start of October.

The Cougars are excited to announce their 2021-2022 Western Hockey League regular season home opener is scheduled for Saturday, October 2nd, against the defending B.C. Division champion Kamloops Blazers.

“We can’t wait to see our fans back at the CN Centre and begin a season like no other,” said Cougars’ Vice President, Business Andy Beesley. “We want to be leaders in helping our community come together in the post-pandemic world and we think our home opener will be a great event to rally around.”

The home opener against Kamloops is the only game of the opening weekend for the Cougars, and the first time in eight years Prince George opens the season at home against the Blazers. The last time the Cougars hosted Kamloops for their home opening weekend was on September 27 & 28, 2013.
