The impacts of Monday’s rainstorm have caused the Western Hockey League to reschedule the Victoria Royals’ Friday game against Kamloops.

The Royals were set to play the Blazers in Kamloops on Nov. 19, but highway closures in the Lower Mainland and Southern Interior have caused the matchup to be postponed until next February.

As of Wednesday night, no other WHL regular-season games are impacted by the closures.
