Hockey Hall of Fame Vice President to attend UNBC Timberwolves Legacy Night

Hockey Hall of Fame Vice President Phil Pritchard and the 4 Nations Cup trophy will be at the University of Northern British Columbia Timberwolves Legacy Night.

The 11th annual Legacy Night is a celebration of sport, community and student-athlete success, while raising funds for scholarships and bursaries for UNBC student-athletes.

“The Timberwolves Legacy Night embodies the spirit of UNBC, celebrating the excellence of UNBC’s student athletes on the pitch and the court as well as their dedication to building and sustaining community at the University.” said UNBC Interim President Dr. Bill Owen.

“It’s inspiring to see how this event unites northern British Columbia in support of student-athletes who balance outstanding academic achievement while performing at the highest level of university sport.” 

Since the event began, it has generated $1 million. 

Those attending will have a chance to see the international trophy up close and hear from Pritchard, who has served as the Keeper of the Stanley Cup for 36 years.

The 2026 Legacy Night will also be the first time the Selen and Anita Alpay Leadership Awards will be presented to one member of each of UNBC’s four varsity teams. 

The UNBC Timberwolves Legacy Night takes place January 28th, 2026.
