USHL:  Cedar Rapids (6) @ Green Bay (7)

November 15, 2025, the Cedar Rapids RoughRiders faced off against the Green Bay Gamblers in an exhilarating, high-scoring matchup.

The intensity kept building until the game ended in a rare 6-6 tie after regulation, necessitating a shootout to determine the winner. Green Bay ultimately emerged victorious, securing the win with a 7-6 final score. Cedar Rapids’ Jason Musa (#10) delivered an impressive performance, netting a hat-trick in the contest.

QMJHL:  Québec (5) @ Charlottetown (2)

After a shorthanded goal late in the second period trimmed the deficit to one, it looked like the Islanders were starting to build some momentum. But a Remparts goal just thirty seconds into the third completely halted that push, and the Islanders were never able to recover.

WHL:  Moose Jaw (3) @ Swift Current (4)

This game was back and forth for most of the night, but Swift Current had more dangerous chances and more grade A’s. The majority of Moose Jaws shots were from the outside or from range; they were opportunistic in their scoring. Swift Current was better in this game, but Moose Jaw kept themselves in the game until Pantelakis scored five-hole in the shootout for the only goal and game winner.

OHL:  Barrie (0) @ Owen Sound (6)

The Owen Sound attack shut out the Barrie Colts 6-0 on the heels of a strong performance by their goaltender, Carter George. The flow of the game belonged mostly to Owen Sound. The Barrie Colts struggled to find any offensive momentum in this game, and when they did, Carter George had the answer.

WHL:  Lethbridge (5) @ Kelowna (4)

The hometown Kelowna Rockets held a 4-3 lead going into the third period, but could not hold on and lost 5-4 in overtime to the Lethbridge Hurricanes. The Hurricanes got the game tying goal from Will Scott, off of fortunate bounce off the end boards, and the game winner from a Kai Anderson one timer in overtime. The Rockets had several good chances in the third period but, Cane’s goaltender Koen Cleaver made some good stops when he needed to.

USHL:  Muskegon (3) @ Madison (2)

Madison Capitols hosted the Muskegon Lumberjacks in what turned out to be an evenly matched game. After battling to a 2–2 tie through 60 minutes, neither team could break the deadlock in overtime. The game went to a shootout, where Muskegon’s #17 Rudolfs Berzkalns scored the deciding goal to secure the win for the Lumberjacks.

WHL:  Kelowna (6) @ Victoria (3)

Landon Young is an undersized defenseman (5’9′, 170 lbs) who is reliable and always in the right spots. Defensively, he ensures he’s between his assignment and his net. On breakouts, he makes crisp first passes, always looking to…

WHL:  Edmonton (4) @ Medicine Hat (3)

This game was a true back-and-forth battle, with both teams trading goals and refusing to give an inch. The depth on both sides was on full display, as several players contributed offensively throughout the night. In the end, it was the Oil Kings who found a way to grab the extra point, sealing the win in the shootout.

QMJHL:  Moncton (6) @ Rimouski (0)

For the final score to end up where it did, this game actually started off relatively slow, with Rimouski trailing just 1–0 after the first period. However, a lack of discipline proved costly, as Moncton capitalized on two of their first three power-play opportunities to extend the lead. From there, the Oceanic could not find a way to climb back into the game.

OHL:  Peterborough (5) @ Sudbury (4)

The Peterborough Petes faced off against the Sudbury Wolves on the road in a high-scoring, back-and-forth contest. Despite a strong late push from Sudbury that nearly completed the comeback, it was Petes forward #26 Aiden Young who led the way with two goals, powering Peterborough to a hard-fought 5–4 victory.

WHL:  Vancouver (2) @ Tri-City (5)

The hometown Tri-City Americans were down 2-1 until late in the first period, but rebounded with four unanswered goals, including an empty netter to defeat the Vancouver Giants 5-2. The line of Connor Dale, Savin Virk and Gavin Garland were excellent in this game as they combined for 10 points for the Americans. Goaltender Ryan Grout had a relatively quiet night, but made a few good stops when needed, in the end making 22 saves for the win.

WHL:  Prince Albert (4) @ Everett (1)

Prince Albert took control of this game early and scored four goals before Everett was able to get on the board. One of the more surprising aspects of the game was that the Raiders went 0 for 6 on the power play still coming away with a decisive win.

OHL:  Ottawa (5) @ Erie (2)

On November 7, 2025, the Ottawa 67’s hit the road to face the Erie Otters. The final score didn’t reflect how close the game truly was—Erie played a strong, competitive match but couldn’t solve 67’s goaltender #1 Ryder Fetterolf, who stood tall throughout. Jasper Kuhta (#22) led the way offensively with a goal and two assists, helping the 67’s secure a 5–2 victory.

OHL:  Kingston (1) @ London (2)

Ben Wilmott is an offensive threat who created a lot of scoring chances on the powerplay against Kingston. He moved around on the powerplay and spent time at both the top of the umbrella and the flank. He understands when to pass and when to shoot, being a play-making and goal-scoring threat. Ben pushes the pace through the neutral zone, pushing defenders back with his speed and work ethic.

WHL:  Wenatchee (1) @ Seattle (4)

Seattle controlled the first and third periods, Wenatchee had some energy and pressure in the second but most of the shots were routine and from the outside. Lots of low battles and wall play in the second in Seattle’s end. Overall Seattle was the better team, they had more dangerous chances. Wenatchee had too many turnovers in their defensive zone in the third and Seattle pounced on the opportunities. The third got pretty chippy following the fourth Seattle goal, however Wenatchee couldn’t get anything going.

WHL:  Seattle (2) @ Penticton (4)

The visiting Seattle Thunderbirds scored two late goals on the Penticton Vees, but it wasn’t enough as they lost 4-2. Special teams were the difference in this game as the Thunderbirds went 0-5 on the power play and gave up a shorthanded goal. Jacob Kvasnicka scored what proved to be the game game winner, his ninth of a season, while Booker Toninato scored his first WHL goal. Vees goaltender AJ Reyelts was again very good in the net with 23 saves.

WHL:  Red Deer (2) @ Moose Jaw (3)

Game was played a lot on the walls and in neutral ice, both teams had some good scoring chances but lots of the shots came from outside. Goalies both played well handling most of the easy stuff. Overtime was exciting to watch with a few good chances both ways before a fallen defenseman lost the puck for a Moose Jaw breakaway that scored the game winner.

WHL:  Kamloops (8) @ Spokane (2)

The visiting Kamloops Blazers scored five straight first period goals and cruised to an 8-2 win over the Spokane Chiefs. Nathan Behm, Kayd Ruedig and Rhett Ravndahl led the way for the Chiefs with two goals each. Ivans Kufterins got the win in goal making 41 stops.

USHL:  Omaha (0) @ Chicago (3)

Neutral Zone was in attendance for this regular season USHL matchup between the Omaha Lancers and the Chicago Steel at Fox Valley Ice Arena. Scoreless for nearly 30 minutes of play, Timothy Kazda (CHI) and Ashton Schultz (CHI) opened the scoring, lighting the lamp just a little over a minute apart together. Kolin Sissons (CHI) would add an empty net goal as Chicago would defeat Omaha by a score of 3-0. Player of the game honors would go to Steel goaltender: Sam Caulfield, who stopped all 38 shots he faced for a shutout.
