We’re nine weeks away from the opening of the 2025-26 Northern Ontario Junior Hockey League season, and the schedule has been released.
The Hearst Lumberjacks open the season on the road on Friday, September 12th, when they visit the Sudbury Cubs. The Jacks’ home opener is the following Friday when they host the Espanola Paper Kings.
The league will have eleven clubs, each playing 52 games: 25 at home, 25 on the road, and two during the annual league showcase, October 7th and 8th in Sudbury.
