Tonight our game was overshadowed by an inexcusable comment on our broadcast. With the support of the
@BCHockeyLeague
we removed the commentator immediately. On behalf of the Bulldogs, I’d like to apologize to Owen and the Kim family. Racism has no place in hockey.

Proud of our league for putting this together and answering concerns with facts. There has been far too much misinformation spread on our departure from HC. Bulldogs & BCHL are committed to delivering an exceptional experience for our fans, and most importantly our players.
After the BCHL announced its independence on May 1, many people have had additional questions, not included in our original FAQ document.
To clarify these points and dispel any rumours, the league has updated its FAQ to include these common inquiries.

Full Story.
In the

Draft, teams don't select players based on statistics.
Character matters. Maturity matters.
In 2022, scouts would have been hard-pressed to find a prospect with more character and maturity than Quebec's

Thank you to the
@SeattleKraken
for hosting us, and the
@BCHockeyLeague
event staff for putting on another first class event! A record number of scouts watched the tremendous talent the BCHL puts on display each night! Two
@AVBulldogs
wins didn’t hurt either!
