EDMONTON —  The University of Calgary’s men’s hockey program has forfeited six of its conference games during the 2017-18 season, Canada West announced Thursday.

Calgary will forfeit games played on Oct. 6, 7, 13, 14, 20, and 21 after the Dinos self-disclosed an ineligible player.

The eligibility issue was submitted by the Dinos earlier this month to U Sports after Calgary discovered a student-athlete did not meet U Sports eligibility regulations.

U Sports may apply additional sanctions upon completion of its process in the New Year

The six forfeited games will be recorded as 1-0 results for Calgary’s opponents. Individual player statistics from the games will remain intact.
