Blazers president says shorter season will be good
KAMLOOPS — The Western Hockey League has played a 72 game season since 1975-76.
That will change next season, with a reduction of four games to a 68 game schedule.
“For us”, says Blazers president Don Moores, “it’s about the experience for players, giving them more time to develop, as far as skills — less travel.”
Coaches will like it — players maybe not so much — if it leads to more practice time —- players like to play games.
