Saskatoon Blades Sending Players Home Amid COVID-19 Outbreak

March 15, 2020 - Western Hockey League (WHL)
Saskatoon Blades News Release


Saskatoon, SK - Due to the severity and uncertainty surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic, the Saskatoon Blades have decided to send its players home to their families immediately. As an organization that considers its players' family, we believe these are appropriate measures to take based on recent international travel restraints due to the virus.

We will continue to monitor the situation, and remain in constant contact with health authorities, the WHL and CHL.

The Blades take the health, safety, and well-being of its players, coaches, staff, and fans extremely seriously. Our players will return to Saskatoon at a date yet to be determined.

We will provide more information to our season ticket holders and ticket buyers soon, and appreciate your patience and understanding during these extraordinary circumstances.
