Moncton to host top prospects in 2024

MONCTON, N.B. – The Canadian Hockey League has announced that the Moncton Wildcats and Events Moncton will host the 2024 Kubota CHL/NHL Top Prospects Game on Jan. 24, 2024, at the Avenir Centre.

“We are thrilled to bring the 2024 Kubota CHL/NHL Top Prospects Game to Moncton for the first time,” said Canadian Hockey League president Dan Mackenzie. “With a surplus of CHL talent eligible for the 2024 NHL Draft, we look forward to bringing the stars of tomorrow to the Maritimes.”

The top prospects game will see NHL Draft eligible talent from the Ontario Hockey League, Quebec Major Junior Hockey League and Western Hockey League compete before hundreds of NHL scouts as they seek to improve their draft stock.

The game in Moncton will mark the 28th edition of the showcase. While it is the first time the game will be played in New Brunswick, it is also just the second occasion it will have been held in Atlantic Canada after Halifax played host in 2013.
