BCIHL Announces 2023 Season Schedule

The British Columbia Intercollegiate Hockey League announced today the schedule for the 2022/’23 pre- and regular season.

After a perfect regular and post-season for Simon Fraser University in 2022, the team looks to elevate its competition even further for the 2023 season.

The club’s schedule includes five pre-season games, twenty regular season games, and five additional in-season exhibition games. Of these games, nine will involve non-conference competition against U-Sports Canada West and NCAA Div. 1 teams.
