The Calgary Canucks have captured the 2025 Inter Pipeline Cup as Alberta Junior Hockey League Champions for a second consecutive season. The Canucks defeated the Grande Prairie Storm in game four of the league final to sweep the series on Wednesday night.
AJHL Commissioner Ryan Bartoshyk awarded Canucks Captain Bowden Singleton as the 2025 AJHL Playoff MVP in a post-game ceremony. “Bowden is well deserving of the Playoff MVP award,” said Canucks GM and Head Coach Brad Moran. “He has elevated his play and led us on and off the ice all season and it comes as no surprise that he was selected. He should take great pride in his perseverance, determination and ability to rise up in big games.”
Calgary eliminated the Camrose Kodiaks 4-1 in the opening round of the 2025 Inter Pipeline Cup AJHL Playoffs before sweeping the Drumheller Dragons to win the South Division Final. This was the 14th league final appearance for the storied Calgary Canucks franchise.
The Calgary Canucks held a regular season record of 37-13-2-2 (W-L-OTL-SOL), tied at 78 points with the Whitecourt Wolverines in the Canalta Hotels AJHL Standings, ultimately capturing the league title based on the tie-breaking formula.
