LETHBRIDGE, AB – The WHL has released a revised schedule for the all-Alberta Central Division.

Following a positive COVID-19 test, team activities for the Calgary Hitmen were suspended on April 8, which shook up the schedule for the rest of the division.

They have now finished their 14-day isolation period and are good to hit the ice once again.

The Lethbridge Hurricanes were set to begin a three-game series with the Edmonton Oil Kings this Friday but will instead face the Hitmen.

The revised WHL schedule is as follows:

Nighttime construction on Hwy 3 in Lethbridge starts April 17

Apr 17, 2025

As a result of the schedule changes, not every team in the Central Division will have the chance to complete the full 24-game regular season. In fact, Lethbridge is the only team that will.

The Canes will have played 24 games, Edmonton, Medicine Hat, and Red Deer will have competed in 23, and Calgary will have hit the ice for 21 competitions.
