The Toledo Walleye announced today that the team has chosen to opt out of competition for the 2020-21 season as part of the ECHL's COVID-19 Voluntary Suspension. The Walleye will return for the team’s 12th season at the Huntington Center in 2021-22.
In November, the ECHL Board of Governors in conjunction with the Professional Hockey Players’ Association approved a February start for Toledo and Fort Wayne. Toledo now joins eleven ECHL teams who have opted out of the 2020-21 season; the six teams in the North Division (Adirondack, Brampton, Maine, Newfoundland, Reading, and Worcester), plus Atlanta, Cincinnati, Idaho, Kalamazoo, and Norfolk.
FINatics will receive communications from one of our Ticket Consultants in the upcoming weeks to discuss their individual plans.
