2016-17 NPHL Season

This is the 2016-17 North Peace Hockey League season.

Membership Changes

 * The Valleyview Jets were accepted back into the league.  The team had last played in the league in the 2012-13 season.
 * The Grande Prairie Athletics were accepted back in to the league after sitting out the 2015-16 season due to reorganization of the team.
 * The Lakeland Eagles had applied to play in the league; but were rejected.  The team was advised they could reapply for membership for the 2017-18.  It appears there was some issue with something in their application not being in accordance with the NPHL constitution.
 * In October, the Manning Comets announced they were taking a one year leave of absence due to a lack of players
 * In early November the High Prairie Regals announced that they would withdraw for the season due to lack of players and sponsors.
