The Vancouver Canucks announced Monday the schedule and ticketing details for this year's pre-season tournament, which runs from Sept. 13 to 16 at the South Okanagan Events Centre.

Marking the 11th edition of the showcase, this year's tournament will precede Canucks' training camp in Penticton. The NHL club earlier in July confirmed it would be returning to the Peach City for the event from Sept. 19 to 22.

The Young Stars Classic will feature a four-team, round-robin-style tournament with prospects from the Canucks, Calgary Flames, Edmonton Oilers and Winnipeg Jets.

Full tournament packages for the Young Stars Classic will go on sale to the general public on Monday, July 29. Tickets can be purchased at the SOEC box office and on .
