OHL postpones more games due to COVID-19, including Hamilton’s visit to Barrie

As a result of COVID-19 protocols, the Hamilton Bulldogs’ New Year’s Eve road trip to Barrie has been postponed, according to the Ontario Hockey League.

Officials shelved games involving the Peterborough Petes and Barrie Colts on Tuesday after both were placed in health and safety protocols.

The move will nix Friday’s game between the Bulldogs and the Colts, as well as back-to-back games between the Niagara IceDogs and the Petes on Friday and Saturday, respectively.

Also on the backburner is the Colts’ scheduled visit to the Peterborough Memorial Centre Thursday night.
