SPRINGFIELD, Mass. - With the health and safety of our players, officials, staff and fans of primary importance, the American Hockey League has announced the suspension of play until further notice, effective immediately, due to concerns over the COVID-19 pandemic.

The AHL will continue to monitor developments and will provide updates on the 2019-20 season at the appropriate time.

We greatly appreciate the understanding of our fans under these conditions. As we receive updates and new information, the IceHogs organization will inform season ticket members, corporate partners, single-game ticket buyers and other organizations as necessary.
