WELCOME TO THE 2019-20 WHL SEASON FROM

WHL COMMISSIONER

Calgary, Alta. – The dawn of a new Western Hockey League season is here and we are thrilled to be witness to the world’s premier junior hockey players as they showcase their talents in each of our 22 markets across Western Canada and the U.S. Pacific Northwest. This marks the 54th season in WHL history, and as always, the WHL Player Experience is paramount for WHL Clubs. On and off the ice, WHL Clubs are entrenched in ensuring WHL players receive world-class coaching and competition together with North America’s most comprehensive WHL Scholarship and education program. The WHL’s Players First support services continue to allow players to develop in a safe and positive environment. In the 25th year of the WHL Scholarship, records were shattered for the sixth consecutive season, as 405 WHL graduates accessed their WHL Scholarship during the 2018-19 academic year. The WHL Scholarship continues to provide an unparalleled educational avenue for WHL graduates driven to achieve their academic goals. Of the 405 WHL graduates who accessed their WHL Scholarship,

Ron Robison Commissioner

close to 200continued their hockey development by playing Canadian University hockey at the U SPORTS level this past season. The 2019 NHL Draft also provided reason for celebration as 28 WHL players, including seven in the first round, heard their name called on home ice in Vancouver. The 28 WHL players represent the largest number of players selected from any one developmental league in the world at the 2019 NHL Draft, reaffirming the WHL’s position as a leading producer of NHL talent. The 2019-20 WHL season will see many high calibre events on display in WHL territory. The WHL Cup will return to Calgary in October 2019, showcasing the top prospects in the system from the 2019 WHL Bantam Draft class. The 2019 CIBC Canada Russia Series lands in Saskatoon and Prince Albert in November, as Team WHL faces the Russian National Team in a preview of the 2020 World Junior Championship. Finally, the Memorial Cup, Presented by Kia, returns to Western Canada for the third time in five years, as the Canadian Hockey League’s best from the WHL, Quebec Major Junior Hockey League, and Ontario Hockey League take to the ice in Kelowna in May 2020.

The Western Hockey League started with just seven teams based in the provinces of Saskatchewan and Alberta in 1966. Today, the WHL has representation in all four Western Canadian provinces and the U.S. states of Oregon and Washington. The WHL now consists of 22 member Clubs with 17 based in Canadian markets and five in the U.S. Pacific Northwest. The WHL is a member of the Canadian Hockey League (CHL) whose membership is comprised of three major junior hockey leagues: Ontatio Hockey League (OHL), Quebec Major Junior Hockey League (QMJHL) and the Western Hockey League (WHL). At the conclusion of each Leagueâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s playoffs, the CHL hosts the Memorial Cup Presented by Kia, a national championship tournament involving each of the three Leaguesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Champions and the tournament host. The WHL is regarded as one of the finest development Leagues in the world today. Each season, the WHL is one of the top Leagues from which players are selected from in the NHL Draft. Currently, 20% of all NHL players are graduates of the WHL. The WHL is also a leading provider of post-secondary scholarships with over 400 scholarships awarded each year to current and graduate WHL players, more than any other League in North America.

Welcome to Kent

…and to the 2019-20 Seattle Thunderbirds season! We are so excited to have you join us for another exciting season with the Seattle Thunderbirds. The year’s home opener will be at accesso ShoWare Center on Saturday, September 21 as the T-Birds take on the Kamloops Blazers. This will be an exciting season under the direction of head coach Matt O’Dette, now in his third season. There will be several new faces this year, but also many key players returning. Matthew Wedman, selected by the Florida Panthers this past June in the NHL Draft, led the T-Birds in scoring last year. He is back for his final season. Henrik Rybinski, also selected by the Panthers in the NHL Draft this past June, will join Wedman up front to provide a dynamic one-two punch. Goalie Roddy Ross, selected by the Philadelphia Flyers in the 2019 NHL Draft, will be counted on between the pipes, and we will watch to see him build on his impressive performance last season. The defensive trio of Tyrel Bauer, Simon Kubicek and Cade McNelly will all be ranked by NHL Central Scouting for the 2020 NHL Draft. Payton Mount, entering his second season, will also see a lot of attention from NHL Scouts this year. Watch for some rookies to have an impact this season, including forwards Kai Uchacz, Lucas Ciona and Conner Roulette, who were all selected in the 2018 Bantam Draft. Returning this year is the T-Birds’ popular two-for-Tuesday promotion sponsored by Chick-fil-A. Fans will be able to enjoy two-for-one specials on tickets, hot dogs, popcorn, soda and beer. The popular Dave and Buster’s Pub Nights are back for four select games this season. The Fred Meyer Turkey Shoot and Ham Shoot are always a fun time as well. The Fred Meyer Teddy Bear Toss presented by WARM 106.9 always sells out, so don’t miss it! All the teddy bears donated are given to local hospitals and fire and police departments to help comfort kids in stressful situations. It’s a fun night for a great cause. Kent is incredibly proud of accesso ShoWare Center. It is a state-of-the-art arena with 6,125 seats, 20 suites and Heritage Club seating. The arena offers unsurpassed hockey sightlines throughout. Don’t forget to stop by Kent Station, a contemporary, urban shopping village with a variety of dining options for pre- and post-game gatherings. I also encourage you to check out historic downtown Kent, where you’ll find more entertainment and dining choices. No matter what you choose, you’ll have more reasons to come back to Kent for your next hockey game. Go Birds!
