Episode 9 of The Junior B Breakdown is here — and Alberta & Quebec are officially frozen solid as our hosts enter full hibernation mode. But even a polar vortex can’t stop Junior B hockey.

This week, we sit down with Cold Lake Ice veteran Josh Butt, one of six players across the league to recently play in their 100th NEAJBHL game — a major milestone and a look at what it takes to stick around this league for that long.

We also highlight upcoming community events around the league, including fundraisers and fan nights that make Junior B hockey more than just what happens on the ice.

And of course — we wrap it up with another edition of Around the League, covering all of last week’s action across the NEAJBHL.
