2019 – 2020 Minnesota High School Hockey - Hockey Fights Cancer

Hockey Fights Cancer™ is a joint initiative started in 1998 between the National Hockey League and National Hockey League Player Association.

This season the Minnesota Wild and American Cancer Society are teaming up on Hockey Fights Cancer to unite the hockey community in support of cancer patients and their families.

Together, we look to inspire hope and courage for those who are living with, going through, and moving past cancer.

Join us to help the hockey family provide comfort and hope to those battling cancer.

Designate a home hockey game as Hockey Fights Cancer Day, where players, coaches, students, and the community rally in support of the American Cancer Society’s mission. Raise funds, raise awareness, and make a difference in the fight against cancer.
