History

The Golden Hawks were founded in 1966. In the 1970s they were members of the Peace Junior B Hockey League. In 1975, the league became the Peace-Cariboo Junior B Hockey League. In 1980, the Peace-Cariboo League was promoted to Jr. A, and the Golden Hawks with it.

In 1981, the Golden Hawks became the Huskies. In 1991, the PCJHL expanded into the Kootenays and became the Rocky Mountain Junior Hockey League. In 1996, as many of the Peace-Cariboo area dropped out of the RMJHL to join the British Columbia Hockey League, the Huskies elected to join Hockey Alberta's newly formed North West Junior Hockey League, reuniting them with traditional opponents like the Dawson Creek Jr. Canucks. The Huskies have been members ever since.
