The Cape Breton Eagles and Charlottetown Islanders are joining the Halifax Mooseheads on the sidelines.
The P.E.I. government announced new COVID-19 restrictions on the weekend that prohibit hockey games until March 14. Even though the Eagles are still permitted to play games, they don't have any opponents available for at least the next two weeks.
The three QMJHL teams in New Brunswick - the Saint John Sea Dogs, Bathurst Titan and Moncton Wildcats - got the green light to resume games on March 8 but only against each other.
The Nova Scotia government shut down all sports competition in Halifax Regional Municipality for a month on Saturday, which included the Mooseheads.
