Round Two, done and dusted. The Everett Silvertips have advanced to the Western Conference Championship after eliminating the Memorial Cup Host Kelowna Rockets in Round Two of the 2026 WHL Playoffs. Landon DuPont scored 40 seconds into overtime to seal a 2-1 victory in Game 5 on Friday night. The low-scoring affair saw 2025 Detroit Red Wings first-round pick Carter Bear open things up with a shorthanded snipe in the back half of the third period before the Rockets tied the game late to force the extra frame. Everett will advance to the Conference Championship for the first time since 2018. NHL Draft-eligible Matias Vanhanen (NHL CSS: 76) scored twice, including the game-winner, and added an assist as the Silvertips cruised to a 4-1 decision at Angel of the Winds Arena in Game One. Bear, who missed the 2025 postseason, came through with his first career postseason goal in Game 2, while landing a primary assist on the powerplay for a 4-2 win.

How's that for Round One revenge? After three straight years of being eliminated by the Portland Winterhawks, the Everett Silvertips returned the favour by sweeping their Pacific Northwest rivals in Round One of the 2026 WHL Playoffs presented by Nutrien. Everett closed out the series with a 6-3 decision in Portland on Wednesday night. Forward Zackary Shantz recorded a three-point night (1G-2A) as the Silvertips scored six unanswered goals to erase a 2-0 deficit and send the Winterhawks packing. Nathan Free and Nathan Brown combined to give Portland a 2-0 advantage, before three straight Everett goals turned the tables in the second period. The 'Tips tacked on three more to start the third period, taking complete control of the contest.

On paper, Friday's NCAA first-round win for defending national champion Western Michigan might seem all too familiar to the Broncos' inspired tournament run a year ago.And yes, undoubtedly, there are similarities. The Broncos' triumph over CCHA champion Minnesota State was essentially another one-goal game — the final score only stretched to 3-1 with less than 10 seconds left in the third period...

The 2026 WHL Prospects Draft Lottery will involve the seven non-playoff Clubs from the 2025-26 WHL Regular Season – Lethbridge, Swift Current, Vancouver, Wenatchee, Moose Jaw, Tri-City, and Victoria. A Club may only move up a maximum of two positions in the WHL Prospects Draft.

No team has repeated as WHL Champions since the dynastic Kamloops Blazers went back-to-back in 1994 and 1995. But the Medicine Hat Tigers would sure like to join them. After picking up the club's sixth Ed Chynoweth Cup win and a trip to the Memorial Cup Final, the Tigers clawed out a, somehow, even stronger regular season than the 2024-25 edition of the team. Medicine Hat rolls into the postseason as the WHL's top scoring team with 348 goals in 68 contests, with a 38-goal dropoff to the second-place team- the East Division champion Prince Albert Raiders. Eight Tigers have surpassed 20 goals, headlined by Bob Clarke Trophy winner Markus Ruck, who led the league with a 108-point (21G-87A) campaign. His twin brother, Liam, was just behind with 45 goals and 104 points. The duo has garnered considerable attention with their stock climbing ahead of the 2026 NHL Draft, but there's star power to be found up and down the Cats' lineup.

If the regular season series between the Calgary Hitmen and Brandon Wheat Kings is any indication, fans are in for a hotly-contested showdown in Round One of the 2026 WHL Playoffs. The fourth-seed Hitmen are back in the dance after a Game 7 heartbreaker in the second round in 2025. Despite seeing plenty of roster turnover with fan favourites like Ben Kindel and Carter Yakemchuk graduating to the professional ranks, Calgary has stayed consistent in a top-heavy Central Division. Four Hitmen players have surpassed 20 goals, including 2025 Pittsburgh Penguins selection Kale Dach and lights-out trade pickup Julien Maze. Maze, 18, is tied for ninth in goals among all WHLers with 38 (24 of which came with Calgary). General Manager Garry Davidson also added grit by bringing in power forward and Ottawa Senators prospect Blake Vanek from the Wenatchee Wild at the 2026 WHL Trade Deadline. Calgary has set itself apart with the second-best powerplay in the league with Dach and Maze at the hel

Ruck’s twin brother, Liam, finished in a close second place with 104 points (45G-59A). The 6-foot, 167-pound centreman was only held off the scoresheet 12 times, while recording three or more points on 11 occasions, highlighted by a one-goal, four-assist effort in a 10-4 win over the Edmonton Oil Kings on February 24, 2026. Ruck has also embarked on two point streaks that lasted 10 or more games, including a 13-game run that lasted from November 22, 2025, to December 30, 2025 (3G-22A).

The Rebels are so back. Red Deer sealed a return to the postseason after a one-season absence by nature of a 4-1 Moose Jaw Warriors loss to the Swift Current Broncos on Saturday night. The Central Division club is currently on the ice for its regular-season finale against the reigning WHL Champion Medicine Hat Tigers. The Rebels have proved they're never out of the running after pulling together a new hard-scrabble identity post-2026 WHL Trade Deadline. Entering Friday's action, the Rebels earned points in seven of their last 10 games, including two hard-fought wins over the East Division-leading Prince Albert Raiders. 2026 NHL Draft-eligible forward Beckett Hamilton has broken out for 60 points (24G-36A) to lead the Rebels in scoring in his sophomore season.
