Rampage return to ice battles this weekend, as 2018-19 CIHL schedule gets underway

The ice is fresh and the players raring to go as the CIHL prepares to launch the 2018-19 season, with the Prince Rupert Rampage and Kitimat Ice Demons getting the spotlight, with the two Northwest teams the only ones in action as part of  Week One play.


The Rhinos start the season on the road to Kitimat tomorrow, with a Saturday night match up with the Ice Demons at Tamitik, the season opener set for a 7PM puck drop.

Saturday night marks the first of fourteen games for the CIHL teams in 2018-19, with the five member clubs on the road for seven and hosting visitors for seven as the five member clubs look towards playoff positioning and the chance to contest for the Coy Cup.
