The Big Six Hockey League has some big news for its fans. The league has gained the Moosomin Rangers but Kipling has decided to take a year hiatus. There will also be a new president and a new lease on life after not being able to crown a champion the last two seasons. 

The last completed season took place back in 2018-2019. That season the Yellow Grass Wheat Kings captured their first championship in franchise history. Nine teams will make up the league this year. The Moosomin Rangers, Oxbow Huskies, Bienfait Coalers, Carlyle Cougars, Carnduff Red Devils, Midale Mustangs, Redvers Rockets and the Wawota Flyers all look to knock off the Yellow Grass Wheat Kings for the league title.

Opening weekend is scheduled for November 19, 20 and 21. On the 19th The Midale Mustangs cruise into Moosomin for an 8 p.m. contest. The Redvers Rockets look to blast off in the win column against the always tough Bienfait Coalers also on the 19th Carlyle travels to Oxbow to take on the Huskies and you can never count the dogs out in any game, especially on home ice.

The league underwent a change in management this off-season. After seven seasons at the helm Rae Wright is no longer league president.
