2020-21 GLHL season

This is the 2020-21 Great Lakes Hockey League season. This is the league's 84th season.
==Attempts at salvaging a playing season==
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the league schedule was delayed on October 15th the league start was pushed back to January and the schedule was modified for no interstate games. By the end of November the league announced that there would be no formal regular season schedule. Out of that announcement plans for a three team playing pod (Calumet Wolverines, Marquette Mutineers, and Portage Lake Pioneers) involving the teams located on the upper peninsula of Michigan was planned pending circumstances allowing game play; games have not been started as of the end of January. The revised schedule would start on February 12th and create an 6 games schedule plus playoffs for each team.
Four of the Wisconsin based teams tried to make a schedule to also get some games in. The Fond du Lac Bears, Fox Cities Ice Dogs, Mosinee Papermakers, and West Bend Bombers had a tentative schedule worked out. Only Mosinee, Fond du Lac, and Fox Cities had been able any games in as of the end of January, with a total of 3 games being played as West Bend pushed their schedule back
==Teams Cancelling Seasons==
*The DePere Deacons announced that they would be sitting out the season on December 1st.
*The Eagle River Falcons announced on December 28th that they were sitting out the season
==Membership Changes==
*The league planned to add the Hockey Factory Selects and the Waupun Wolves. Waupun is planned to play out of the Waupun Community Center in Waupaca, Wisconsin. The Hockey Factory Selects appear to be an extension of the Hockey Factory youth program which is based out of the Blue Line Ice Center in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin and McFarland Community Ice Arena in McFarland, Wisconsin. However neither team appears on the league schedule until early February and mid-March respectively. Both teams appear to be gone for the 2021-22 season.
