Weekend home games highlight PG Spruce Kings schedule

The BCHL has released the schedule for its 61st regular season.

The Prince George Spruce Kings play the first of 54 games in 2022-23 when they visit the Coquitlam Express on September 23rd followed by a clash against the Langley Rivermen on the 24th.

From there, the Spruce Kings will hold their home opener on September 30th against the Vernon Vipers from the PG Coliseum.

The Spruce Kings have 23 of their 25 home games on either a Friday or Saturday.

General Manager Mike Hawes told MyPGNow.com, the league office got it right.

“We have more travel than any team in the league and every year we seem to come out pretty lucky in regards to our home schedule and I feel confident we’ve got another good one this year.”

“I know that was a focus of the league office and the governors throughout the league is to focus on getting as many weekend dates as we can. Prime nights as we call them are better for everybody whether it be crowd-wise and it’s better for the fans and players.”

The BCHL regular season is expected to conclude on March 26th, with the playoffs kicking off five days later (March 31st).
