How about that Friday night home opener win, Hawks fans?
Your Winterhawks came out flying with a 4-1 win over the Everett Silvertips, highlighted by two goals from James Stefan and 42 saves from Jan Špunar. Now, they turn their attention to the Vancouver Giants, who have kicked off the season with a 2-1-0 record and look poised to push Prince George for the top spot in the B.C. Division.
It was an incredible atmosphere in the VMC from start to finish – bring that energy again tonight!

Mike Johnston Hits 500
Last night’s win was a special one for the Winterhawks organization as Head Coach & General Manager Mike Johnston picked up his 500th WHL win, becoming the 11th head coach in WHL history to do so.
“Congratulations to Mike on this incredible accomplishment. Coaching the Winterhawks to 500 wins puts him in a very elite group of coaches within the sport of hockey. As an organization, we could not be more proud of him,” said Winterhawks Owner & Managing Partner Michael Kramer. “Very few people in hockey have had similar on-ice success, not to mention the positive impact he has had on the professional and personal development of the hundreds of young men that he has coached. His talents and character are unmatched – it is accomplishments like this that only reinforce my view that the Winterhawks and the City of Portland are truly blessed to have the best coach in the sport.”
Congratulations, Mike!
