Minnesota Hockey today announced its guidance for Phase 5, which will go into effect on Thursday, January 14 when games may resume. Key highlights of Phase 5 include:

• One spectator per player may be allowed at practices but should still be limited as much as possible. 
• A maximum of two spectators per player will be allowed for games, with exceptions for parents or guardians who must bring in young children.
• Three coaches will be allowed on the bench during games
• No resurfacing during games (between periods).
• Tournaments may occur.
• Inter-state travel must be approved by the appropriate District Director and is strongly discouraged, with the exception of border towns.
