Penticton Vees: Dynasty or Done?

The Penticton Vees are heading into their final BCHL playoffs before jumping to the WHL. This begs the question: are they going out on top with a 15th Fred Page Cup or is this the end of an era? They dominated the regular season, but playoffs are a different beast. Can they handle the pressure of a final hurrah?

The Okotoks Oilers stand in their way, a team they’ve beaten three out of four times this season. Does this give the Vees a psychological edge, or does it make the Oilers even hungrier for an upset? Share your predictions for this first-round matchup.

This move to the WHL is a huge step. Will the Vees maintain their winning ways against tougher competition? Or will they struggle to adapt? What are your expectations for their future in the WHL? Let’s hear your bold predictions.

Finally, the Vees are offering a pretty sweet playoff package. $30 for a ticket, beer, and popcorn. Is this a good deal for fans or just standard playoff pricing? Do these kinds of promotions really impact attendance? What are your thoughts on playoff ticket pricing in junior hockey?
