WHL (PG Cougars)
The Prince George Cougars home game, originally scheduled for tonight (Tuesday) against the Victoria Royals, has been moved to Tuesday, January 18th, 2022.
The reason for the postponement is the adverse weather conditions that prompted ferry cancellations between Vancouver Island and the Lower Mainland.
Prince George and Victoria will face each other on Wednesday at CN Centre as regularly scheduled.
The (4-3) Cougars have won four in a row, all against Victoria. The (1-8) Royals have dropped their last seven. The Cougars have not won five straight since Jan 18, 2017 (6-5 Shootout win over Portland).
The WHL Regular Season game originally scheduled for Tuesday, October 26 between the @victoriaroyals and @PGCougars has been rescheduled to Tuesday, January 18.
