The Ontario Hockey Association will vote to approve the move of the Alvinston Flyers during a regular scheduled meeting tonight.
After 27 years in Alvinston, the team is looking to move to Petrolia for the start of next season.
There hasn't been much objection from surrounding junior C teams, but community members have penned letters to the OHA in hopes of keeping the team in Alvinston.
Petrolia Minor Hockey President Nick Salaris says he's excited about the potential it brings for his players, but is concerned over the impact it could have on ice time.
The Petrolia Squires Sr. AA team already play their home games at the Greenwood Recreation Centre.
The move would bring a junior hockey team to town for the first time since the junior B Jets moved to Lambton Shores following the 2007-2008 season.
