Prince George may be the Northern Capital, but the Cougars’ ability to impact communities stretches far past city limits.<\/p>\n

Look no further than the Spirit of Healthy Kids Program.<\/p>\n

The program initially launched as a reading program back in 2015, but has since expanded to share lessons about healthy habits, kindness and community involvement.<\/p>\n

In addition to school visits that see players read to classes and take part in group activities, the Cougars have teamed up with Spirit of the North to create videos covering everything from proper teeth brushing to managing screen time.<\/p>\n

“Screens have a way of sucking us in,” forward Townes Kozicky explained in one video. “If we’re not careful, we can lose control of our whole day and we can end up feeling low energy and down on ourselves.”<\/p>\n

“The more time we spend on screens, the less time we have for other activities,” defenceman Eli Johnson added. “Real life happens off screen. Don’t miss it.”<\/p>\n

More than 33,000 students in 220 elementary schools across Northern B.C. take part in the program and even come up with their own creative initiatives designed to encourage healthy lifestyles.<\/p>\n

This season, \u00c9cole La Grande-Ourse in Smithers, B.C., won a $5,000 prize for its ‘Eat the Rainbow’ challenge, which saw 100% participation among its small but strong population of 23 students.<\/p>\n

Another $5,000 in grants has been distributed to five other schools right in Prince George and as far away as Terrace, B.C.<\/p>\n

“While winning is certainly exciting, the true success of this program is the positive impact it has on the lives of young people across our region,” a Cougars press release said. “By encouraging healthy habits and active lifestyles, schools are helping build a healthier and happier future for our children.”<\/p>\n

The Cats look forward to seeing the program return for its 11th season in 2026-27.<\/p>\n

\n

The Western Hockey League strives to promote and foster a welcoming environment in communities close to our 23 clubs in Western Canada and the Pacific Northwest. Every team has the creative freedom to allow their players and staff to work with the organizations and groups that they are most passionate about. The end goal is to create and maintain long-lasting relationships and ongoing partnerships within their community.<\/em><\/p>\n

Through the McSweeney\u2019s WHL Community Collective, we aim to highlight these outstanding initiatives done by each club throughout the season.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

Swift Current, SK \u2013 <\/span><\/strong>The Swift Current Broncos have acquired 2008-born forward Ty Meunier and a 2030 seventh-round WHL Prospects Draft Pick from the Calgary Hitmen in exchange for 2007-born forward Brennan Brown, a 2027 third-round WHL Prospects Draft Pick (Calgary), and a 2029 fourth-round WHL Prospects Draft Pick (Conditional).<\/span><\/p>\n

Meunier, a product of St. Albert, Alberta, is set to enter his third Western Hockey League season after spending the past two years with the Prince Albert Raiders and Calgary Hitmen.<\/span><\/p>\n

Originally selected seventh overall in the 2023 WHL Prospects Draft, Meunier enjoyed a strong rookie campaign in 2024-25, recording 14 goals and 15 assists for 29 points in 68 games with Prince Albert.<\/span><\/p>\n

Last season, the 17-year-old split time between the Raiders and Hitmen. He collected six goals and nine assists in 29 games with Prince Albert before being dealt to Calgary, where he added six goals and 11 assists for 17 points in 35 games to finish the season.<\/span><\/p>\n

“We wish Brennan the very best and much success in Calgary,” said Broncos General Manager and Head Coach Travis Crickard. “He is a first-class person with a great work ethic who fits a valuable need for the Hitmen.<\/span><\/p>\n

“Ty Meunier is a former seventh-overall WHL Prospects Draft pick and a player who has a strong pedigree of scoring and producing. With an increased role and ice time on our team, we think he can be that as a member of the Broncos. We look forward to seeing him in the green and blue come September.”<\/span><\/p>\n

Calgary, Alta.-\u00a0<\/strong>Twelve players developed in the Western Hockey League have been invited to represent Canada at the 2026 World Junior Summer Showcase.<\/p>\n

The weeklong exhibition is the first step on the road to the 2027 IIHF World Junior Championship.<\/p>\n

A total of 32 skaters will participate in practices, scrimmages and exhibition games against Finland, Sweden and the United States.<\/p>\n

The WHL contingent features six defencemen and six forwards, including seven first-round NHL Draft picks and two WHL champions.<\/p>\n

2026 NHL sixth-overall pick and Calgary Flames prospect Carson Carels (Prince George Cougars \/ Cypress River, Man.), Vancouver Canucks first-rounder Braeden Cootes (Prince Albert Raiders \/ Sherwood Park, Alta.), and Victoria Royals alumnus Keaton Verhoeff (Fort Saskatchewan, Alta.) and Cole Reschny (Macklin, Sask.) are all eligible to return from the 2026 World Junior quad, which won bronze in Minnesota.<\/p>\n

“We’re excited to announce the 32 players who will attend the World Junior Summer Showcase in Windsor as we begin our preparation for the 2027 IIHF World Junior Championship,” National Junior Team General Manager and former WHL executive Alan Millar said. “This is an important opportunity for our staff to evaluate a talented group of players against top international competition while continuing to build our identity as a team. We’re looking forward to seeing this group compete and bringing this showcase to Windsor in front of passionate Canadian hockey fans.”<\/p>\n

Jackson Smith (Tri-City Americans \/ Calgary, Alta.) played parts of three seasons with the Ams, netting 85 points (19G-66A) in 136 regular-season matches before being drafted by Columbus with the 14th overall pick in the 2025 NHL Draft.<\/p>\n

2025 WHL Rookie of the Year finalist Keaton Verhoeff scored 21 goals and 24 assists for 45 points in 63 games in 2024-25. He was selected by the San Jose Sharks with the ninth overall pick in the 2026 NHL Draft.<\/p>\n

Carels, a 2026 WHL Defenceman of the Year finalist, posted a monster 73 points (20G-53) in 58 games in 2025-26 and cracked the WHL Western Conference First All-Star Team. Carels and Verhoeff were the two youngest skaters on Canada’s 2026 World Juniors roster.<\/p>\n

Vancouver Giants standout Ryan Lin (Richmond, B.C.) battled through injury to hear his name called 21st overall by the Sharks in June.<\/p>\n

He logged 57 points (14G-43A) in his sophomore campaign in the Lower Mainland, surpassing 50 points for a second consecutive season.<\/p>\n

2026 WHL Champion Brek Liske (Everett Silvertips \/ Beausejour, Man.) had a career-best 24-point (7G-17A) campaign under his belt before hitting a new gear in the postseason.<\/p>\n

With captain and Anaheim Ducks prospect Tarin Smith sidelined by injury, Liske was elevated to Everett’s top pairing and went off for 17 points (4G-13A) in 18 games, including the championship-clinching goal.<\/p>\n

Philadelphia drafted Liske with the 53rd overall pick in the second round of the 2026 NHL Draft.<\/p>\n

Daxon Rudolph (Prince Albert Raiders \/ Lacombe, Alta.) reigned as the highest-drafted active WHLer at the 2026 Draft when Buffalo snapped him up with the fourth-overall selection.<\/p>\n

The Raiders alternate captain tied franchise legend Josh Morrissey for single-season strikes by a defenceman with 28, while tacking on 50 assists for 78 points in 68 games. The Defenceman of the Year finalist also tied for the lead in playoff scoring with 27 points (9G-18A) in 19 games while reaching the WHL Championship Series.<\/p>\n

Up front, Reschny dominated with 152 points (48G-104A) in 127 regular-season games with the Victoria Royals from 2022-25.<\/p>\n

He registered 25 points (9G-16A) in 11 playoff games in 2025 alone before being selected by Calgary with the 18th overall pick that June.<\/p>\n

Florida Panthers fourth-rounder Shea Busch (Everett Silvertips \/ North Vancouver, B.C.) got off to a hot start to the season with 18 points (13G-5A) in 12 games before being sidelined by injury for the remainder of the campaign.<\/p>\n

The 19-year-old returned to the ice for the 2026 WHL Playoffs and contributed 13 points (7G-6A) in 16 outings to help the Silvertips hoist the Ed Chynoweth Cup for the first time in franchise history.<\/p>\n

2025 Vancouver Canucks 15th overall pick Braeden Cootes (Prince Albert Raiders \/ Sherwood Park, Alta.) made his NHL debut at the start of the 2025-26 season before returning to the WHL.<\/p>\n

Cootes notched 63 points (24G-39A) in 45 outings with the Seattle Thunderbirds and, post-WHL Trade Deadline, the Prince Albert Raiders. He won the Brad Hornung Memorial Trophy as the WHL’s Most Sportsmanlike Player and helped the Raiders reach the Championship Series with 23 (7G-16) postseason points.<\/p>\n

Power forward Chase Harrington (Spokane Chiefs \/ Prince George, B.C.) is coming off a career-best 57-point (28G-29A) season while finishing eighth in the WHL in penalty minutes with 105.<\/p>\n

Harrington joined Carels and Reschny in the Flames’ prospect pool when Calgary called his name 36th overall in the second round of the 2026 NHL Draft.<\/p>\n

Edmonton Oilers 2025 83rd-overall pick Tommy Lafreniere (Kamloops Blazers \/ St-Sauveur, Que.) caught fire with 41 goals and 36 assists for 77 points in 67 games to help the Blazers return to the WHL postseason and tie for sixth in goals among all WHLers in 2025-26.<\/p>\n

Speedy winger Cameron Schmidt (Victoria Royals \/ Prince George, B.C.) topped all WHLers with a monster 51 goals, while finishing third in the league points race with 100.<\/p>\n

The 2024 Dallas Stars third-round pick was recently acquired by the Victoria Royals after a dominant campaign with the Vancouver Giants and Seattle Thunderbirds.<\/p>\n

Landon DuPont (Everett Silvertips \/ Calgary, Alta.), the first exceptional status defenceman to play in the WHL, was invited to the World Junior Summer Showcase but will suit up for Canada at the upcoming Hlinka Gretzky Cup instead.<\/p>\n

The World Junior Summer Showcase runs from July 26-August 1 at the WFCU Centre in Windsor, Ont.<\/p>\n

Canada will hold practices on July 27 and 28 before facing off against Sweden on July 29, Finland on July 30 and the United States on August 1.<\/p>\n

The 2027 IIHF World Junior Championship kicks off on December 26, 2026, in Edmonton and Red Deer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Lethbridge, AB – <\/strong>The Lethbridge Hurricanes Hockey Club has announced the signing of 2011-born defenceman Evan Cuthbertson to a Western Hockey League Scholarship and Development Agreement.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am extremely excited to sign with the Hurricanes. Playing in the WHL has always been a dream of mine and getting the opportunity to do that in Lethbridge makes it even better. It\u2019s a great hockey city with passionate fans, and I can\u2019t wait to be part of that environment,\u201d said Cuthbertson. \u201cSigning a WHL Player Agreement means a lot to me and my family. It represents years of hard work, sacrifice, and support finally paying off. My family has been with me through early\u2011morning practices, long road trips, injuries, and every high and low along the way, so this moment feels like something we achieved together. For me, it\u2019s the first real step toward chasing my dream of playing in the NHL, and for my family, it\u2019s a proud milestone knowing that all the time, effort, and belief they invested in me helped make this possible.\u201d<\/p>\n

Cuthbertson, 15, was selected by the Hurricanes in the third round (58th<\/sup> overall) in the 2026 WHL Prospects Draft. The Kamloops, British Columbia, product appeared in 16 regular season games with the Yale Hockey Academy U15 Prep team, where he amassed 12 points (2g-10a) along with six penalty minutes. He also skated in one regular season game with the Yale U17 Prep team during the 2025-2026 season, where he was held pointless.<\/p>\n

The 6\u20190, 165-pound rearguard represented Team Black at the 2026 BC Cup tournament where he registered two penalty minutes in four contests. Cuthbertson also appeared in four games at the John Reid Memorial Tournament being held pointless. In 2024-2025, Cuthbertson collected 21 points (6g-15a) along with two penalty minutes in 16 games with the Thompson Blazers U15 AAA team while adding three points (1g-2a) in five post-season games.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m really excited for my first WHL camp in August. It\u2019s something I\u2019ve been working toward for a long time, and getting the chance to be on the ice with WHL players and coaches is a huge step in my development. I\u2019m looking forward to competing, learning, and showing that I belong at that level. It\u2019s going to be a great experience, and I can\u2019t wait to get started,\u201d added Cuthbertson.<\/p>\n

Cuthbertson joins Artello Forestal and Ronan Gow as the three players from the 2026 WHL Draft to sign WHL Scholarship and Development agreements with the Hurricanes.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re excited to welcome Evan and his family to the Hurricanes organization,\u201d said Hurricanes General Manager Barclay Parneta. \u201cEvan is a well-rounded defenseman with a reliable two-way game. He moves the puck efficiently, shows good vision, and helps drive transition. Defensively, he\u2019s dependable, competes hard, and uses his size and reach effectively. We believe he has all the tools to continue developing and are looking forward to seeing him in a Canes uniform in the future.”<\/p>\n
