CALGARY – The Western Hockey League playoffs will begin April 22, the league announced Thursday.
That will allow for the rescheduling of previously postponed regular-season games.

The WHL post-season will feature the reintroduction of the conference playoff format, including three best-of-seven rounds followed by a best-of-seven league championship series.
The WHL championship is scheduled for June 3-14. The league champion will advance to the Memorial Cup, which will be held from June 20-29 in Saint John, N.B.
