The league is aware of the situation that occurred Sunday night between Strait Pirates and Pictou County Scotians. At this time this incident is under investigation by a third-party review board.
The NSJHL takes allegations such as these seriously and a full review must be conducted involving both teams, the officials, and any other parties involved. We understand that there may be more to the incident than what was initially reported, however, we cannot provide any further information as this is now in the hands of a third party.
The NSJHL follows regulations and guidelines handed down from Hockey Canada and Hockey Nova Scotia, and will fully comply with these regulations throughout the investigation process.
