The Kraft Hockeyville NHL games in Twillingate are being delayed.

Twillingate won Kraft Hockeyville last winter, but COVID put plans for an official NHL exhibition game, which was part of the prize package, on hold.

Kraft-Heinz, along with the NHL, and the NHLPA, announced that due to the pandemic, the games set to take place this year, are moving to the Fall of 2022.

The company says it will be working with the local organizing committee throughout the year to ensure that Hockeyville celebrations are “events of excellence”.
