91Ô´´ hockey fans will have plenty to cheer when the puck drops at the WHL Cup in Calgary.
One 91Ô´´ hockey player and four potential future members of the Vancouver Giants have made the final roster for Team BC.
Team BC will battle Team Alberta, Team Saskatchewan and Team Manitoba at the newly re-branded WHL Cup. It was formerly known as the Western Canada U16 Challenge Cup.
The competition runs Oct. 18 to 22 at WinSport Arena in Calgary.
Aidan De La Gorgendiere — a first round pick (fifth overall) of the Saskatoon Blades in the 2017 WHL bantam draft — was one of the 20 players listed for Team BC.
