At t one time it was the source for everything Western Hockey League!
We’re doing things a little differently this year.. With the number of draft guide’s on the market from spectacular companies like ISS, Future Considerations, Recrutes and McKeens, as well as content from people like Brock Otten who does a spectacular job covering the OHL’s top prospects, we decided to offer something a little […]
Red Deer Rebels Red Deer really had a strong draft in our opinion, taking guys who really drove their lines this season and could make a scoring impact. All the while taking long shot guys later on towards the end of the draft who could add depth to their future […]
Brandon Wheat King centre Nolan Patrick led the WHL nominees in picking up the Sherwin Williams Top Prospect award. Regina Pats star Sam Steel was also awarded the Chrysler Top scorer award after his remarkable 131 -point campgaign.

Kootenay Ice The last placed team in the WHL once again was able to snag the top offensive talent in the draft. They were also able to address every other need in the prospect pool, from a big right-handed defender to a long term project goalie to a well-rounded two-way […]
