BCHL Roster Numbers Heading Into January 10th Roster Deadline:

Tuesday, December 30, 2014

With the Hockey Canada roster deadline and BCHL transfer deadline just eleven days away, I've calculated each BCHL team's number of roster players, number of 20-year-olds (or 1994-born) and number of imports. These numbers do not include players on injured reserve as they don't count towards roster numbers.

These numbers may change in the next week and a half, but this is where they stand right now. The Canadian Junior Hockey League has an inter-league transfer freeze which is lifted on January 1st. There was no holiday transfer freeze among BCHL teams.

Teams are allowed 22 players overall on their roster, of which no more than six can be 1994-born players and no more than six can be import players. Only American-born players are considered imports.

This should show what some teams are able to add or subtract when the deadline arrives. As always, any corrections and comments are welcome.
