Bishop’s College School (3)听vs Fort听Erie International Academy (4) East U17 Prep听听

听听

Fort Erie edged out听Bishop鈥檚听in a tight, momentum鈥憇winging 4鈥�3 win, capitalizing on听timely听finishes and surviving long stretches where they were second best. Emerick Girard (2G, 1A) set the tone just 86 seconds in, but BCS pushed back late in the first through Matej听Strapina听(1G) and kept trading blows in a chaotic second period where Alexis Timbro (1G) restored FEIA鈥檚 lead before Marc鈥慉ntoine Larochelle (1G) and Greyson Hnatiuk (1G) answered to pull Bishop鈥檚 level twice. Even with BCS carrying the shot clock 34鈥�23 and generating most of the territorial pressure, Fort Erie found the game鈥檚 final swing when Charles鈥慉ntoine Racette (1G, 1A) buried the game鈥憌inner with six seconds left, capping a patient third period where FEIA needed only one chance to steal it. Bruno听Jeschonnek听(31/34) was steady throughout, while Egor Oganesyan (19/23) battled behind a Bishop鈥檚 group that听couldn鈥檛听turn its volume into听a finishing touch听in the final frame.听听

RINK Hockey Academy Winnipeg (2)听vs RINK听Hockey Academy Kelowna (3) U17 Div II Western Championships听听

听听

RHA Kelowna clawed out their first win of the Pool B round robin with a tight 3鈥�2 comeback over RHA Winnipeg, a game that opened with four goals in a frantic first period before settling into a tense, low鈥慹vent grind. Winnipeg struck twice in the opening frame, first through Grayson Speirs (1G) on a clean finish off an Arcadian Anderson (2A) feed, then again when Mateo Saldivar (1G) buried his first of the tournament, but each time Kelowna had an answer, with Noam Colapinto (1G) and Otis Jacques (1G) responding to keep things level after twenty. From there, penalties and defensive structure took over, as Kelowna slowly tilted the ice. The breakthrough finally came late in regulation when Jake Kochhar (1G) ripped a wicked shot under the bar at 12:10, the kind of strike that breaks a deadlock and a team鈥檚 resolve听in听the same听moment. Beau Keller鈥態laschuk听(16/18) held firm in a quiet but composed outing, while DJ听Mecas听(25/28) kept Winnipeg alive far longer than the shot clock suggested, as Kelowna earned a much鈥憂eeded bounce鈥慴ack win after both teams dropped their opening games of these playoffs.听

STAR Hockey Academy (2) vs Notre Dame听Hounds (5) U17 Div II Western Championships听听

听听

Notre Dame, the No.鈥�2 seed in U17 Division II, looked every bit like a听team听intent on owning Pool A, powering past No.鈥�3 STAR Hockey Academy 5鈥�2 in a game that tilted steadily their way after a tight opening frame. Paul听Abrametz听(3G) set the tone early with a slick finish midway through the first, only for STAR to punch back late on a power play when Deacon Wilson (1G, 1A) buried with 23 seconds left. But the second period belonged entirely to the Hounds: Carter Rands (1G) stunned STAR with a shorthanded听strike,听Abrametz听added his second minutes later, and Devin Doyle (1G, 1A) capped the surge to make it 4鈥�1 through forty. STAR showed life when Aaron Comer (1G) cut into the deficit in the third, but听Abrametz听completed his hat trick with an empty鈥憂etter in the final minute, sealing a statement win for a Notre Dame group that has now opened the round robin with back鈥憈o鈥慴ack victories. Hudson Pooler (22/24) delivered another composed outing, while Jacob Gaskell (31/35) battled under steady pressure as STAR听lose听their first game of these playoffs.听

听

OHA Edmonton听(4) vs Edge听School (5/SO) U17 Western Championships听听

听听

Edge survived one of the wildest games of the U17 Division I Pool A round robin, blowing a 4鈥�1 lead before finally outlasting eighth鈥憇eed OHA Edmonton 5鈥�4 in a marathon shootout that felt more like a semifinal than a group鈥憇tage matchup. Easton Armstrong (2G) set the tone early with a pair of first鈥憄eriod strikes, and when Kyle Oakenfold (1G, 1A) and Curtis Troeger (1G) added to the cushion in the second, it looked like the top seed was cruising. But OHA Edmonton refused to fold, clawing back with goals from Nate McRorie (1G, 1A), Finn Sample (2G), and Ayden Stuckless (1G) to stun the building and force overtime. With both teams already 1鈥�0 in pool play and desperate to control their path to the elimination round, the shootout became a pressure test of its own. Armstrong, Kyden Bartole, Devin Kian Shape, all converted their shootout attempt, but each goal was matched by OHAE shooters before and finally Trent Caines buried the winner for Edge.听听

听听

Pacific Coast Hockey Academy听(3) vs Northern听Alberta Xtreme (6) U17 Western Championships听

听听

Pacific Coast looked ready to avenge their loss of yesterday with a confident first period, riding a pair of goals from Jackson Squire (2G) to a 2鈥�0 lead. But the second frame turned into the kind of avalanche Northern Alberta has made a habit of unleashing in big鈥憇tage games. NAX struck five times in a 15鈥憁inute span, Ethan听Lobay听(1G), Rhett Dahl (2G), Gabriel Esteves (1G)听and Reed Fellows (1G, 1A) all finding seams as momentum flipped violently against a PCHA group that had carried the early edge. Despite the chaos, Leon听Auburger听(39/44) battled to keep the score from ballooning further, and Pacific Coast pushed back late, with Trent Porter (1G, 1A) cutting into the deficit in the third. But with PCHA pressing six鈥憃n鈥慺ive, Holter Lefthand (1G, 1A) hit the empty net to close out a 6鈥�3 NAX win.听听

听听

BWC Academy (2)听vs RINK听Hockey Academy Kelowna (6) U18 Prep Western Championships听听

听听

RHA Kelowna flexed their top鈥憇eed pedigree in a Pool A showdown between the group鈥檚 two highest鈥憆anked teams, rolling past BWC Academy 6鈥�2 in a game that tightened briefly before Kelowna鈥檚 depth and pace overwhelmed the 6鈥憇eed. Nate Macphee (2G, 2A) set the tone with a first鈥憄eriod strike and restored the lead just 15 seconds after BWC tied things in the second, a momentum swing that cracked the game open. Ryan听Sadovia听(1G) added a power鈥憄lay dagger minutes later, and although Kayden Pratt (1G) pulled BWC back within one before intermission, the third period belonged entirely to RINK Kelowna. Carson Smith (3G, 1A) completed a hat鈥憈rick with goals at :57 and 8:49, one even鈥憇trength, one on the power play, while Louis James听Prystupa听(1G, 1A) chipped in insurance during a three鈥慻oal burst that buried any hope of a comeback. Asher Netherton (27/30) steadied RHAK in net, while James Fitzpatrick (39/45) battled under a 45鈥憇hot barrage as Kelowna moved to 2鈥�0 in round鈥憆obin play and tightened their grip on the pool.听

听听

Pilot Mound Hockey Academy听(1) vs Shawnigan听Lake School (4) U18 Prep Western Championships听听

听

Shawnigan Lake steadied themselves in Pool A with a composed 4鈥�1 win over Pilot Mound, a matchup between the #13 and #15 seeds that never truly loosened from SLS鈥檚 grip despite the chaos that unfolded around it. Sullivan Bryan (1G) opened the scoring early, and while PMHA briefly punched back on a second鈥憄eriod power play through Nolan Harding (1G), the middle frame belonged to Shawnigan鈥檚 special teams. Wylie Wen (1G, 1A) restored the lead on the man advantage, and just 58 seconds later Nigel Alberts (1G, 1A) buried another power鈥憄lay strike to make it 3鈥�1 in a stretch that broke the game open. The third period turned into a parade to the penalty box, PMHA racking up misconducts and majors as SLS controlled pace and territory, but the only goal came at even strength, with Sidney Armstrong (1G) finishing off a clean passing play to seal it. Zackary David (50/54) battled under a 54鈥憇hot barrage, but Stefan Kostin (21/22) delivered the calmer night as Shawnigan rebounded from yesterday鈥檚 loss while PMHA, fresh off pushing the top听seed to听overtime,听couldn鈥檛听summon another upset bid.听

Coeur d’Alene Hockey Academy听(1) vs RINK听Hockey Academy Kelowna (9) U17 Prep听听

听听

RINK Kelowna overwhelmed Coeur d鈥橝lene from the opening shift and never eased off the throttle, rolling to a 9鈥�1 win built on wave鈥慳fter鈥憌ave pressure and a top line that carved up the game. Cole Hamakawa (3G, 3A) needed just 34 seconds to open the scoring and was the engine behind everything RHAK generated, setting up Aiden Andrews (3G, 1A) and striking again late in the first before adding two more in a six鈥慻oal third鈥憄eriod avalanche. CDA briefly sparked to life when Gavin Payne (1G) scored 48 seconds into the third, but Jack Leslie (2G) answered less than a minute later and RINK Kelowna never looked back, piling on with goals from Andrews, Alexander Sharman (1G, 2A), Hamakawa again, and Leslie in the final seconds. The shot clock told the same story, 53鈥�22 for RHAK, as Matthew Palmer (21/22) cruised through a quiet afternoon while Liam Rogers (44/53) battled under constant siege.听

听听

RINK Hockey Academy Winnipeg听(7) vs Pilot听Mound Hockey Academy (3) Female U18 Prep听听

听听

RINK Winnipeg overwhelmed Pilot Mound from the opening puck drop and never let the game breathe, skating to a 7鈥�3 win built on a four鈥慻oal first period and another multi鈥慻oal night from their most dangerous scorer. Rowyn Street (3G) opened the scoring at 3:38 and was the catalyst for a first鈥憄eriod surge that also saw Attica Sobering (1G), Piper Holbrook (1G, 2A) and Georgia O鈥橬eill (1G) all find the back of the net as RHA Winnipeg outshot PMHA 28鈥�4 in the frame. Street added her second early in the second before Pilot Mound finally听broke through听late in the period, but the gap never narrowed meaningfully. Street completed the hat trick midway through the third, and although Logan Sullivan (1G) and Rhylee Tiefel (1G) chipped in late goals for PMHA, Ava听Hrubeniuk听(1G) buried an insurance marker in the final minutes to close out the scoring. Maddison Hagen (12/15) had a quiet afternoon behind a group that controlled every zone, while Allie Attema (37/44) battled under constant pressure as RINK Winnipeg completed another decisive win in the season series.听

Notre Dame Hounds听(2)听vs Indigenous听Sports Academy听(4)听U17 Prep听

听

Indigenous Sports Academy rode a blistering opening three minutes and a composed third鈥憄eriod response to earn a 4鈥�2 win over Notre Dame, a game where early execution and late poise proved the difference despite a 42鈥�35 shot count. Owen Sinclair (2G) stunned the Hounds with goals 27 seconds apart to stake ISA to a 2鈥�0 lead before the game had even settled, and while the second period tightened into a grind, ISA鈥檚 structure held firm behind Holden听Fauchon听(32/34). Notre Dame finally broke through early in the third as Lincoln Romaniuk (1G) and Joe Wakabayashi (1G) scored 1:44 apart, Wakabayashi鈥檚 coming on the power play, to erase the deficit and briefly tilt momentum. But ISA answered with the game鈥檚 defining push: Seth Baptiste (1G, 1A) restored the lead at 4:53, and Ason听Apesis听(1G) sealed it with an empty鈥憂etter inside the final ten minutes. Trent Probst (35/38) kept the Hounds alive under heavy pressure, but ISA鈥檚 early burst and听timely听third鈥憄eriod finish ensured they controlled the matchup when it mattered most.听

听

Northern Alberta Xtreme听(6)听vs OHA听Edmonton听(1)听U15听

听

Northern Alberta controlled the moments that mattered in a 6鈥�1 win, turning special鈥憈eams听opportunities and a relentless third鈥憄eriod push into a听statement听performance against OHA Edmonton. Deston May (1G, 1A) opened the scoring midway through the first before Owen听Bresden听(1G, 1A) and Yukon Kim (2G) struck late, both on the power play, to build a 3鈥�0 cushion despite being outshot early. OHA finally broke through on a second鈥憄eriod man鈥慳dvantage via Kingston Ireland (1G), but NAX answered before the intermission through Alex Reinhardt (1G, 2A), restoring control heading into the third. From there, Northern Alberta Xtreme slammed the door: Kim buried his second just 77 seconds into the frame, and Cohen Aquino (1G, 1A) added听another听minutes later as NAX outshot OHA 17鈥�10 in the period and never let the game tighten. The goaltending tandem of Jace Hilliard (25/26) and Marek Swanson (15/15) combined for a calm, efficient night, while Brynley Nault (16/22) and Bronson Kasturi (13/13) faced a steady stream of high鈥憅uality looks at the other end.听

 

Okanagan Hockey Academy听(1) vs Prairie听Hockey Academy (5) U17 Western Championships

 

Prairie听Hockey Academy鈥檚 U17 squad suffered a 5-4 loss at the hands of Delta Hockey Academy in their Western Championships opener on Saturday, a game they largely controlled but fell to an immense offensive push from Delta in the game鈥檚 first half. Like Saturday, PHA fell behind early, with this time OHA鈥檚 Cole Schellenberg scoring the game鈥檚 first goal on the powerplay. Jake Mhyre tied the game for Prairie prior to the end of the first, and approaching the second period鈥檚 midway mark, the OHA powerplay which produced their goal went back to work. Unlike their first, this powerplay ended with Prairie, not OHA, taking the lead. Kase Gellner (2G) blocked a shot and dashed away to the races, making an excellent move from his forehand to his backhand at high speed to give Prairie the lead. It took barely three minutes for Gellner to score again to make it 3-1, and two more in the third was just the cherry on top of a 5-1 win for Prairie, a necessary victory as the U17 playoffs march on.

Prairie Hockey听Academy听(4) vs South听Alberta Hockey听Academy (5) U18 Prep Western Championships听

 

A loss for the South Alberta Hockey Academy in Saturday鈥檚 Western Championship opener wasn鈥檛 something they expected, nor would they be content with to begin their championship push after winning the East/West Challenge in February. Just past the halfway mark of the game, Sunday鈥檚 clash with Prairie Hockey Academy looked like it was trending towards a result no better than that of Saturday. Grayden Solodan and Lincoln Eaves had put Prairie up two, with Eaves鈥� goal to double up the lead threatening to fracture SAHA鈥檚 chances. However, just 11 seconds after Prairie scored to make it 2-0, Damen Vanderberg (1G, 1A) snatched SAHA one back, lighting the spark of a SAHA pushback. Braden Hordichuk (2G, 1A) scored on the powerplay to tie it before the end of the second, with the game eventually marching towards its conclusion tied at four. After Hordichuk provided the equalizer, a sharp-angle snipe from Kingston Chisholm (2G, 2A) broke the tie with 27 seconds left to lift SAHA to an extremely crucial win.

 

North Shore Warriors听(3) vs RINK听Hockey Academy Winnipeg (4) U18 Prep Div II Western Championships听

 

Much like yesterday, the Athens Shingoose (2G, 2A) show went on come Sunday for the RINK Hockey Academy Winnipeg in their U18 Prep Div II Western Championships game against the North Shore Warriors. Shingoose scored three yesterday and notched four points to carry RHAW through their win over North Shore today, despite some speed bumps on the way to win. Shingoose opened the scoring before providing two primary assists to lead RINK Winnipeg into the second period ahead by three. North Shore, though, would come storming back, with two goals in nine seconds late in the second, led by Ethan Patterson, who followed up four goals yesterday with his fifth of the weekend already. North Shore tied the game early in the third, but RHAW鈥檚 eight of nine power plays came short thereafter, and Shingoose scored again, giving RINK their third goal on the man advantage in the game. RHAW survived the scare to win 4-3.

 

St. George’s School听(5/OT) vs Calgary听International Hockey Academy (4) U18 Prep Western Championships听

 

Sunday鈥檚 U18 Prep Western Championships clash between St. George鈥檚 School and Calgary International Hockey Academy was set ablaze early by a fiery CIHA offensive push, with Mason Moran鈥檚 (3G) early powerplay goal just the beginning of a potent first period for CIHA. In the 3:47 following Moran鈥檚 first goal, CIHA had slotted two more, and Moran would finish his hat-trick with minutes to play to send CIHA into the second period ahead 4-0. With SGS looking up at a mountain to climb, they could only begin chipping away at the deficit. With the deficit already massive, Carter Adams (24/25), who played eight minutes of the first period and allowed one goal, was phenomenal. He stopped all 12 shots he faced in the second and another 12 in the third, shutting the door completely after the first intermission, and giving the Saints the chance to come from behind. They鈥檇 make significant strides in doing so before even the end of the second, with Louis Oscar Holowaychuk (2G) scoring a goal sandwiched between a pair of SGS powerplay markers, leading St. George鈥檚 in the third down by just one goal. An incredible rush from D-man Holden Wouters finished with his second goal of the game to make it 4-4 early in the third, sending the game into overtime, It wasn鈥檛 Wouters, but another usual suspect to win it for the Saints, with Holowaychuk scoring just 18 seconds into overtime to complete St. George鈥檚 School鈥檚 come-from-behind 5-4 overtime win. Carter Adams stopping the last 24 shots he faced can鈥檛 be ignored in the Saints鈥� win.

 

Delta Hockey听Academy听(5) vs BWC听Academy (3) U17 Western Championships听

BWC Academy and Delta Hockey Academy鈥檚 U17 squads are both significantly more used to winning than losing. Delta won the season series 3-2, but on Sunday, it was BWC who controlled the first period, outshooting their opponent 16-8 and taking a 2-1 lead into the final forty minutes. The game completely flipped, consequently so, in the second period. It took 32 seconds for Sam Hioe to square things at two for Delta in the second, seemingly snatching all of the momentum away from BWC. DHA outshot BWC 22-10 in the second and would add three more goals to cushion themselves from their opponents, led by two points apiece from Beckham Skrypnyk (1G, 1A), Brady Olson (1G, 1A), Jack Triance (2A), and Victor Lee (2A). Kaz Westcott (2G) snatched one back, but ultimately couldn’t get any closer than that, and Delta prevailed.

 

Okanagan Hockey Academy听(2) vs Northern听Alberta听Xtreme (1) U18 Prep Western Championships听

Sunday鈥檚 clash between the Okanagan Hockey Academy and Northern Alberta Xtreme鈥檚 U18 Prep squads was one contested by two teams who both clearly respected one another鈥檚 ability, with their closeness reflected in the way the game unfolded. Teagen Bouchard scored with 67 seconds to go in the first to give NAX the lead through one, with Maxx Parfitt鈥檚 powerplay goals levelling the score early in the second. It looked for a long while as if those two goals had destined the game for overtime, but late in the third, Marcus Domhof picked the puck up in his own zone for OHA, and started motoring ahead. As he crossed centre, it looked as if he was ready to dump the puck in, but rather, Domhof feathered the puck off the wall and retrieved it on the other side of the defensive NAX back checker. Domhof scooped up the puck in a dangerous position and found Landon Nagle (1G, 1A) in the slot, who fired home the game-winning goal with barely more than two and a half minutes to play. Charlie Peppinck stopped 25 of 26 to earn the W.

 

Delta Hockey Academy听(5) vs Edge听School (1) U18 Prep Western Championships听

 

Delta Hockey Academy played an admirable game on Saturday, with their sixty-minute effort yielding a 4-1 win, thanks to a potent powerplay and tight defensive effort. That recipe for success was replicated on Sunday from Delta, whose powerplay scoring and tight defensive work lifted them over Edge School. Delta scored three powerplay goals, including another two from Kelowna Rockets prospect Jack Morgan (2G, 1A), who scored one yesterday. Treyce Pavlic (3A) also contributed three points for Delta. Despite the eventual 5-1 win, the Edge School squad who finished second today weren鈥檛 starved for offensive chances, with goaltender Matthew Wong standing tall, stopping 41 of 42 shots to earn his second win in as many games. Wong has now made 70 saves on 72 shots over the first two playoff games to earn DHA two wins to kick things off.

 

North Shore听Warriors (2) vs Coeur听d’Alene Hockey Academy (4) U17 Div II Western Championships听

 

Making good on early chances gave Coeur d’Alene Hockey Academy an excellent start to the game, striking twice in the first period to take a 2-0 lead into the second. As was the case in the first period, North Shore continuously pushed back in the second, eventually pulling back within one through forty minutes. Noah Eade scored early in the third to level things up for the Warriors, with a North Shore powerplay not long after making the ultimate impact. Unfortunately for the Warriors, though, the impact wasn鈥檛 in their favour. After a few shorthanded chances came and went, Kirill Zhikharev scored a shorty to give CDA the lead, one only built upon by Tate Smith late. Liam Reed stopped 30 of 32 in the win.

 

Wenatchee Wild Hockey Academy听(3) vs Notre听Dame Hounds (7) U18 Prep Div II Western Championships听

 

The first twenty minutes of play were evenly matched, with both teams trading early goals, but neither side really threatening to run away with things. A six-minute stretch to start the second period defined the rest of the hockey game. An incredible save from Notre Dame鈥檚 Joshua Heitman sent the Hounds back the other way, with a laser-beam off the stick of Thomas Beaton making it 2-1, and Lewis Brown鈥檚 (3G, 1A) second of the game quickly made it 3-1. Heitman made another ten-bell stop right after Brown鈥檚 goal, and from there, Wenatchee unsuccessfully chased the game. Every pushback was met by Notre Dame pushing the game further out of their hands, eventually winning 7-3, with Brown鈥檚 hat-trick and four points leading the way.

 

Yale Hockey听Academy听(7) vs Pacific听Coast Hockey听Academy (4) U18 Prep Western Championships听

 

The first head-to-head matchup between Yale Hockey Academy and the Pacific Coast Hockey Academy this season ended in a massive Sea Devils victory, but both of the following two head-to-head games between these two teams were razor-thin. PCHA won in overtime in yesterday鈥檚 tournament opener, with Yale falling 6-2 at the hands of the Northern Alberta Xtreme. An extremely tight game unfolded on Sunday, with Yale鈥檚 big guns ultimately the difference. Tony Cabelka (2G, 1A) opened the scoring in the first and would score again later, but it was Alex Ostrovskyy (2G, 3A) who took over. After providing Cabelka the primary assist in the first, Ostrovskyy scored a laser beam on the powerplay in the second, before another assist helped Yale into the lead in the second. Another goal and primary assist in the third for Ostrovskyy, as well as a goal from U15 Prep captain Parker McMillan, led Yale to the 7-4 win.

 

Coeur d’Alene Hockey Academy (8) vs OHA Edmonton (1) U18 Prep Western Championships

 

An explosion of second-period offence from Coeur d’Alene Hockey Academy ultimately pushed them far enough ahead of OHA Edmonton that nothing OHAE could do made a dent in the comeback effort. After a scoreless first, the beginning of the second period saw CDA score four goals in barely more than five minutes, including one from Ewen Willers (1G, 1A) to add on to the two he scored on Saturday. OHAE pulled one back in the second period, but the quick-fire offence that saw CDA establish their lead was too much for OHAE to come back from. Gage Kiselbach (2G) and Easton Margettie (1G, 3A) both scored perfectly-placed wrist shots in the third to help CDA go further beyond OHA Edmonton, with Coeur d’Alene eventually winning 8-1.
