The Mowat Cup moving to a best-of-five series: Game changer or gimmick?
The BCHC and BC Hockey just announced a shake-up for the 2025 Mowat Cup. Instead of a four-team tournament, we're getting a best-of-five showdown between the KIJHL and PJHL champions. Is this the right move for Junior A Tier 2 hockey in BC?
Will a series truly crown the best team, or could a hot goalie or a couple of lucky bounces steal the title? Does this format add more excitement for fans, or does it devalue the regular season?
The old tournament format had its own charm. It was a quick, intense battle with everything on the line in every game. This new format feels more like a traditional playoff series. Which one is better for developing players and showcasing their skills?
What are your thoughts on this change? Does a series format elevate the prestige of the Mowat Cup, or does it take away from the unique nature of the tournament? Share your opinions and predictions for the 2025 championship!
