For a second consecutive year, the Ms. Hockey Award Banquet will be held outside of St. Paul.

The 27th annual Ms. Hockey winner and Senior Goalie of the Year Award winner will be announced during a program beginning at 11 a.m. Feb. 27 at Inwood Oaks in Oakdale.

Organizers at Let’s Play Hockey Magazine moved the event from its traditional home at the St. Paul RiverCentre because St. Paul requires customers to show proof of vaccination or a negative COVID-19 test to enter restaurants, bars and other entertainment venues.

Last year, the event took place at the Coon Rapids Ice Center.

The keynote speaker will be Olympic gold medalist Karyn Bye Dietz.

A total of 27 girls were nominated by their coaches for the Ms. Hockey Award, which goes to Minnesota’s best senior high school hockey player.

A panel of high school and college coaches will narrow the list to 10 semifinalists, which will be announced Friday, Feb. 11. The five finalists will be named Feb. 18.

Admission for the 2022 Ms. Hockey Awards Banquet is $40 and includes a meal. Parking is free. To order tickets, contact Bryan Zollman at 320-333-3279 or e-mail him at bryan@letsplayhockey.com.
