Canadian hockey league results

Overview

Recent reports cover various levels of Canadian hockey, including junior, professional, and NHL play.

In the WHL, the Kelowna Rockets earned their first win of the 2026/27 season by defeating the Penticton Vees 3-1. Junior league updates from the VIJHL noted a 5-4 victory for the Victoria Cougars over the Nanaimo Buccaneers, a 5-1 win for the Lake Cowichan Kraken, and a 1-0 win for the Oceanside Generals.

In professional play, the Abbotsford Canucks initially saw success in the AHL pre-season with a sweep of the Calgary Wranglers. However, they later opened their regular season with two 4-2 losses to the same Calgary team. Despite these losses, rookie Braeden Cootes scored his first professional goal.

In the NHL, the Vancouver Canucks have experienced a mixed start to the season, holding a 2-2-0 record. They secured a 4-1 comeback victory against the Calgary Flames at Rogers Arena, responding to an early deficit with four goals in the final frame from Liam Ohgren, Elias Pettersson, Drew O’Connor, and Aatu Räty. Following that win, Vancouver fell 3-2 to the Vegas Golden Knights, with Marc Gatcomb scoring the decisive goal.

Regarding roster changes, the Calgary Flames have placed forward Connor Zary and defenseman Brayden Pachal on waivers. Zary, a former first-round pick, has seen a regression in production, and the move follows the Flames' inability to secure a trade for the player, who carries a $3.775 million annual cap hit.
