Wildcats enter CHL Top-10 Rankings: Week 10 & 11

The Canadian Hockey League (CHL) today unveiled its combined Week 10 & 11 edition of the CHL Top-10 Rankings presented by Delta Hotels by Marriott, for the 2025-26 season.

The Brantford Bulldogs (19-2-4-1) hold No. 1 for an eighth straight week despite dropping their first two regulation games of the season, still boasting a CHL-best 11-0-2-1 home record, a league-leading 4.92 goals per game, and a stacked core headlined by Marek Vanacker, Jake O’Brien, Adam Benak, and new addition Jett Luchanko. The Everett Silvertips (20-3-2-1) climb back to No. 2 on the strength of a 10-2-1-1 run dating back to October 26, tying Brantford with a .827 points percentage while leading the CHL with 20 wins and getting big performances from Carter Bear and Tempo WHL Player of the Week Tarin Smith. Just behind them at No. 3, the Prince Albert Raiders (17-2-4-0) remain one of the league’s stingiest outfits, allowing a CHL-low 2.43 goals per game and posting a .826 points percentage while holding five games in hand on Edmonton in the WHL’s Eastern Conference, with Daxon Rudolph and Aiden Oiring driving the attack as the Raiders prepare for a tough Alberta road swing.

Further down the list, the Ottawa 67’s (19-6-1-1) jump three spots to a season-best No. 5 on the back of a 12-1-0-1 heater since October 29, fueled by tight team defence and an attack paced by Thomas Vandenberg, Jasper Kuhta, and team-leading goal scorer Cooper Foster. The Flint Firebirds (19-6-1-1) debut at No. 8 thanks to the CHL’s longest active point streak at 12 games (11-0-0-1), with New York Rangers prospect Nathan Aspinall and Los Angeles Kings prospect Jimmy Lombardi both sitting among the OHL’s top offensive threats as Flint closes in on the CHL win leaders. At No. 10, the Moncton Wildcats (16-6-2-1) return to the rankings for the first time since the preseason after a dominant 10-2-0-1 November that pushed their points percentage to .700, with 2026 NHL Draft prospect Tommy Bleyl driving offence from the back end and Sharks prospect Teddy Mutryn emerging as a key rookie as Moncton rides a QMJHL-best six-game point streak into December.

CHL Top-10 Rankings – Week 10 & 11

1. Brantford Bulldogs (OHL): Despite suffering their first two regulation losses of the 2025-26 season, the Brantford Bulldogs (19-2-4-1) remain No. 1 in the CHL Top-10 Rankings for the eighth straight week after winning three of five over the last two weeks. Brantford opened Weeks 10 and 11 with dominant wins over Niagara (5-0) and Sarnia (7-2) before falling 2-1 in Brampton and then splitting a pair of one-goal games against Kitchener (4-3 win) and Oshawa (5-4 loss). Both regulation losses came on the road, meaning the Bulldogs still haven’t lost in regulation at the TD Civic Centre, where they boast a CHL-best 11-0-2-1 home record. Their .827 points percentage remains tied for tops in the CHL alongside No. 2 Everett, while they continue to lead all teams offensively with an average of 4.92 goals per game. The addition of 2024 Flyers first-round pick Jett Luchanko (2G-17A in 14 GP), who picked up his first two points with Brantford in the win over Kitchener, only adds more firepower to a lineup that already features three other NHL first-rounders in Jake O’Brien, Marek Vanacker, and Adam Jiricek. Chicago Blackhawks prospect Vanacker (23G-12A in 23 GP) recorded three multi-point outings, including a hat trick against Niagara and two goals in Oshawa, and leads both the OHL and CHL with 23 goals, while Bulldogs captain and Seattle Kraken prospect O’Brien (10G-34A in 24 GP) tops the OHL with 44 points and Minnesota Wild prospect Adam Benak (14G-26A in 24 GP) sits second with 40 after posting four multi-point efforts in his last six games. This week, Brantford will look to reset and protect its perfect home regulation record as it welcomes Kingston and North Bay to the TD Civic Centre.

Games this week: vs. Kingston (Dec. 3), vs. North Bay (Dec. 6)

2. Everett Silvertips (WHL): Backed by three wins in their last four outings, the Everett Silvertips (20-3-2-1) have climbed back up to second in this week’s CHL Top-10 Rankings, continuing a stretch that has seen them lose in regulation just twice over their last 14 games (10-2-1-1) dating back to October 26. Over that span, Everett has averaged an impressive 4.43 goals per game and now leads both the WHL and the CHL with 20 wins, sitting level with No. 4-ranked Edmonton for that distinction, while their .827 points percentage is tied with the No. 1-ranked Brantford Bulldogs for best in the CHL. Offensively, Detroit Red Wings 2025 first-rounder Carter Bear (11G-13A in 20 GP) has been on a tear, posting a WHL-best 10 points over his last four games and riding a five-game point streak that includes seven goals and four multi-point efforts. On the back end, Anaheim Ducks prospect Tarin Smith (7G-21A in 25 GP) was recognized as Tempo WHL Player of the Week after putting up seven points (2G-5A) and a +3 rating in three games, further underscoring Everett’s balanced attack. This week, the Silvertips host Spokane on Wednesday before heading to Kennewick to face Tri-City and then returning home to welcome Vancouver, where they’ll look to avenge Saturday’s 4-3 loss to the Giants.

Games this week: vs. Spokane (Dec. 3), @ Tri-City (Dec. 5), vs. Vancouver (Dec. 6)

3. Prince Albert Raiders (WHL): Despite slipping one spot to No. 3 in this week’s CHL Top-10 Rankings, the Prince Albert Raiders (17-2-4-0) remain firmly entrenched among the league’s elite, with this marking the first time they’ve dropped in position since entering the rankings seven weeks ago. Winners of two of their last three, the Raiders own a .826 points percentage that sits just behind No. 1 Brantford and No. 2 Everett (.827), and, with only 23 games played, they remain just four points back of No. 4 Edmonton for top spot in the WHL’s Eastern Conference while holding five games in hand on the Oil Kings. Prince Albert continues to set the standard defensively across the CHL, allowing a league-low 2.43 goals per game, narrowly edging No. 6 Chicoutimi (2.44), and recently welcomed back 2026 NHL Draft prospect Daxon Rudolph (7G-11A in 23 GP) from the 2025 CHL USA Prospects Challenge, where he returned to score his seventh of the season to move into a tie for fifth among WHL defencemen in goals. Overager Aiden Oiring (9G-15A in 23 GP) continues to pace the club in scoring, picking up points in two of his last three outings, as the Raiders prepare for a challenging week that includes a rematch in Medicine Hat on Wednesday, followed by a demanding three-game Alberta road swing through Calgary, Red Deer, and No. 4-ranked Edmonton.

Games this week: @ Medicine Hat (Dec. 3), @ Calgary (Dec. 5), @ Red Deer (Dec. 6), @ Edmonton (Dec. 7)

4. Edmonton Oil Kings (WHL): Riding one of the hottest stretches in the WHL with eight wins in their last 10 games, the Edmonton Oil Kings (20-6-1-1) hold steady at No. 4 in this week’s CHL Top-10 Rankings, having spent more than half the season inside the top five. Edmonton, alongside the No. 2-ranked Everett Silvertips, leads the CHL with 20 wins and has powered that success with a WHL-best 125 goals, a total that trails only the No. 1-ranked Brantford Bulldogs (128) across the CHL. After dropping back-to-back road games in Kelowna (5-2) and Prince George (3-2), the Oil Kings responded with bounce-back victories over Red Deer (5-2) and Saskatoon (6-5). Up front, Toronto Maple Leafs prospect Miroslav Holinka (14G-24A in 25 GP) has been on a tear since November 18, posting a WHL-best 10 points (6G-4A) over his last five outings and finding the scoresheet in 11 of his last 13 games, a run that includes seven multi-point performances and has pushed him into a tie for third in WHL scoring with 38 points. Colorado Avalanche prospect Max Curran (11G-22A in 26 GP) has also been red-hot, scoring three times in the wins over Red Deer and Saskatoon to cap an outstanding November in which he tallied 10 goals in 12 games, finishing just one shy of the WHL lead for the month. This week, the Oil Kings wrap up their three-game homestand by welcoming the Red Deer Rebels and then the No. 3-ranked Prince Albert Raiders in what could double as an early-season showdown for first place in the WHL’s Eastern Conference.

Games this week: vs. Red Deer (Dec. 5), vs. Prince Albert (Dec. 7)

5. Ottawa 67’s (OHL): Riding four wins in their last five outings and an 8-1-0-1 run over their past 10 games, the Ottawa 67’s (19-6-1-1) continue their climb up the CHL Top-10 Rankings, jumping three spots to a season-best No. 5 this week. Dating back to October 29, Ottawa has earned 12 wins in its last 14 games (12-1-0-1), with its lone regulation loss over that stretch coming in a tight 2-1 decision in Owen Sound on November 22. The 67’s have been particularly stingy defensively, allowing two goals or fewer in nine of those 14 contests. Ottawa now sits tied for the OHL lead with 19 wins and sits just one back of CHL co-leaders Everett and Edmonton (20 wins each), while its .741 points percentage is tied for the second-best mark in the OHL. Up front, 2026 NHL Draft prospect Thomas Vandenberg (9G-7A in 18 GP) has picked up where he left off after missing nine games, Finnish forward Jasper Kuhta (14G-13A in 27 GP) continues to pace the team with 27 points, and overage forward Cooper Foster (16G-10A in 27 GP) has found the scoresheet in five of his last six outings, leading Ottawa with 16 goals. The 67’s now face a busy three-in-three weekend with matchups against Barrie, Peterborough, and No. 8 Flint.

Games this week: vs. Barrie (Dec. 5), @ Peterborough (Dec. 6), vs. Flint (Dec. 7)

6. Chicoutimi Saguenéens (QMJHL): Despite a pair of losses in their last three outings, the Chicoutimi Saguenéens (17-5-1-2) remain firmly in the mix near the top of the CHL, slipping just one spot to sixth in this week’s Top-10 Rankings. Over the past two weeks, Chicoutimi has still won four of six, and after back-to-back road setbacks in Val-d’Or (5-3) and Rouyn-Noranda (4-1), they punched back with a 6-3 win over the Foreurs on Sunday to secure their QMJHL-leading 17th victory of the season. The Saguenéens continue to sit atop the QMJHL with a .740 points percentage and remain one of the stingiest defensive teams in the CHL, having allowed a QMJHL-low 61 goals; their 2.44 goals-against per game ranks second across the CHL, just behind the Prince Albert Raiders (2.43). Up front, 18-year-old Nathan Lecompte (12G-18A in 23 GP) and Anaheim Ducks prospect Maxim Massé (18G-15A in 24 GP) have stayed red-hot—since November 18, Lecompte has piled up 11 points (6G-5A in 5 GP), while Massé has produced a QMJHL-best six goals and four assists over that span, pushing Massé into the QMJHL’s top three in goal scoring and making Lecompte one of just 17 skaters to surpass 30 points this season. This week, Chicoutimi will put its impressive 8-1-1-0 home record on the line as it welcomes Québec and Baie-Comeau to the Georges-Vézina Centre.

Games this week: vs. Québec (Dec. 5), vs. Baie-Comeau (Dec. 7)

7. Blainville-Boisbriand Armada (QMJHL): Riding a three-game winning streak and a 3-1-0-0 run over the past week, the Blainville-Boisbriand Armada (17-6-3-0) hold steady at No. 7 in this week’s CHL Top-10 Rankings. Over the last two weeks, the Armada dropped a 4-2 decision at home to Shawinigan before rebounding with consecutive victories over Val-d’Or (3-1), Gatineau (6-3) and Victoriaville (4-1), a surge that has them tied with No. 6 Chicoutimi for the QMJHL lead with 17 wins. Blainville-Boisbriand continues to ice one of the CHL’s most dangerous offences, averaging 4.54 goals per game to rank first in the QMJHL, while its .712 points percentage trails only Chicoutimi’s .740 in the league. The Armada have now won six of their last eight (6-1-1-0) and have suffered just one regulation loss since November 7, thanks in large part to the play of Vegas Golden Knights prospect Mateo Nobert (13G-21A in 24 GP), who is on a six-game point streak with 13 points (6G-7A) over that span, including a hat trick against Gatineau, pushing him to fifth in QMJHL scoring with 34 points. Up front, St. Louis Blues prospect Justin Carbonneau (21G-9A in 22 GP) has scored in three of his last four games to reach 21 goals on the season, placing him second in the QMJHL, just one back of Shawinigan’s Félix Lacerte. This week, the Armada aim to extend their win streak to four—their longest run since October 3—when they host Rimouski in their lone outing.

Games this week: vs. Rimouski (Dec. 5)

8. Flint Firebirds (OHL): Powered by the longest active point streak in the CHL at 12 games (11-0-0-1), the Flint Firebirds (19-6-1-1) make their CHL Top-10 debut of the 2025-26 season at No. 8 in this week’s rankings. Flint’s run has seen them surge up the OHL standings, with their only blemish in the last 28 days coming in Sunday’s 3-2 shootout loss in Sarnia after reeling off 11 straight wins. During this heater, the Firebirds are averaging 4.33 goals per game and have scored four or more in half of those outings. Their 19 wins on the year place them in a share of the OHL lead alongside No. 1 Brantford, No. 5 Ottawa, and No. 9 Windsor, and just one back of CHL win leaders Everett and Edmonton (20). New York Rangers prospect Nathan Aspinall (17G-21A in 24 GP) has been a major driver of Flint’s success, sitting in a tied for third in OHL scoring with 38 points and riding an eight-game point streak (9G-9A), while Los Angeles Kings prospect Jimmy Lombardi (18G-16A in 25 GP) has been red-hot with goals in five straight and seven over that span, tying him for third among OHL goal scorers with 18 on the season. This week, Flint will look to keep its CHL-best point streak alive on a three-game Eastern road swing through Peterborough, Kingston, and Ottawa, where they’ll cap off their trip against the No. 5-ranked 67’s.

Games this week: @ Peterborough (Dec. 4), @ Kingston (Dec. 5), @ Ottawa (Dec. 7)

9. Windsor Spitfires (OHL): Despite a solid overall record of 19-6-2-1, the Windsor Spitfires have slid to their lowest position of the season at No. 9 in the CHL Top-10 Rankings after managing four wins in their last eight games (4-3-1-0). The past two weeks have still featured some strong performances, with Windsor winning four of six, including a sweep of Owen Sound (3-2, 3-1) and convincing victories over Guelph (5-1) and Saginaw (4-1). Their three-spot drop is due in part to the torrid form of other OHL contenders, as No. 5 Ottawa and No. 8 Flint have both won 11 of their last 14 and now sit just ahead of the Spitfires in points percentage (.741 vs. Windsor’s .732). Individually, Chicago Blackhawks prospect and newly named U.S. World Juniors preliminary roster member AJ Spellacy (8G-6A in 23 GP) has heated up with a four-game point streak and goals in three of those outings, while 2026 NHL Draft prospect Ethan Belchetz (17G-12A in 25 GP) returned from the 2025 CHL USA Prospects Challenge and promptly scored his 17th of the season in Guelph to remain top-10 in OHL goal scoring. In net, Joey Costanzo continues to backstop Windsor’s success, improving to 14-3-1-0 with a CHL-best 1.87 goals-against average and wins in five of his last seven starts (5-1-1-0), having lost in regulation just once since November 2. The Spitfires now face a major test as they prepare for a home-and-home showdown with the defending 2025 Memorial Cup champion London Knights this weekend.

Games this week: @ London (Dec. 5), vs. London (Dec. 6)

10. Moncton Wildcats (QMJHL): Powered by a QMJHL-best six-game point streak (5-0-0-1), the Moncton Wildcats (16-6-2-1) are back in the CHL Top-10 Rankings for the first time since opening the 2025-26 campaign at No. 8 in the preseason, checking in this week at No. 10. Dating back to November 9, Moncton has won eight of its last 10 games and is one of only two QMJHL teams to hit that mark, while also standing alone as the only QMJHL club to earn at least a point in nine of its last 10. A dominant November (10-2-0-1) pushed the Wildcats from a 6-4-2-0 start (.583) to 16 wins and a .700 points percentage entering December, leaving them just one victory back of QMJHL co-leaders Chicoutimi and Blainville-Boisbriand. On the back end, 2026 NHL Draft prospect Tommy Bleyl (4G-22A in 24 GP) led all QMJHL defencemen in November with 18 points (2G-16A in 13 GP), boosting him to 26 points on the season—four shy of league leader Xavier Villeneuve of the Blainville-Boisbriand Armada—and he rolls into December on a seven-game point streak with points in 10 of his last 11 contests. Up front, San Jose Sharks prospect Teddy Mutryn (10G-14A in 21 GP) has found his stride in his rookie QMJHL season, matching Bleyl with 18 points (8G-10A) in 13 November outings and being held off the scoresheet just four times all month. This week, Moncton will look to extend its six-game point streak with home dates against Saint John and Rouyn-Noranda at the Avenir Centre before a return trip to TD Station for a rematch with the Sea Dogs.

Games this week: vs. Saint John (Dec. 4), vs. Rouyn-Noranda (Dec. 5), @ Saint John (Dec. 7)
