Local junior C hockey clubs haven’t played since December and the Provincial Junior hockey League regular season has been shortened due to the lengthy layoff.
Once the Ontario government’s restrictions are lifted next Monday, Jan. 31, PJHL teams will complete a 30-game schedule instead of 35.
That means the Picton Pirates and Napanee Raiders each have 10 games remaining while the Campbellford Rebels have nine and the Frankford Huskies have nine. All six teams in the PJHL’s Tod Division make the playoffs with the top two teams receiving a first-round bye.
The Amherstview Jets (17-4-0-0) lead the division with 34 points followed by Napanee (14-4-0-2) 30 points, the Port Hope Panthers (12-7-2-1) 27, Picton (10-9-0-1) 21, Campbellford (7-14-0-0) 14 and Frankford (1-19-2-0) 4.
