For the first time since 2023, the Regina Pats are heading back to the Western Hockey League playoffs.
Thanks to the Moose Jaw Warriors’s 4-1 loss to Swift Current on Saturday night at Temple Gardens Centre, the Pats officially secured a postseason berth and will face the Medicine Hat Tigers in the opening round. Regina finishes seventh in the Eastern Conference with 59 points, while Medicine Hat locked up second place with 108 points. The Warriors missed the playoffs by one point, as the Red Deer Rebels clinched eighth despite an 8-3 loss to the Tigers.
Games 3 and 4 of the Pats first round series are scheduled for Tuesday, March 31 and Wednesday, April 1 in Regina at the Brandt Centre.
The WHL is expected to release the full playoff schedule on Sunday, March 22.
Ticket information for both season ticket holders and the general public will be announced beginning Monday, March 23. Fans are encouraged to check their inbox, as well as the team’s website and social media channels, for full details.

Congratulations to the Regina Pats.
They have a great crew top to bottom.
Very happy for Dale. Especially happy for Brad and the crew.
Go on a run now
As for MJ. They will be back.
Derkatch/Hunt/Ripplinger as GMs in the East. Steel sharpens steel.
As for Swift Current it is time to sell it, move it, disband it or just drop it down to the SJHL. 40 years of very bad operators involved in that franchise.
