All 61: WHL Playoffs Conference Finals

All 61: WHL Playoffs Conference Finals

Author: Steve McLean April 22, 2026 Duration: 1:06:33

We continue to look across the CHL ahead of the conference finals set to get underway this week and to look back at the 2nd round of the WHL playoffs we bring back Ryan Switzer from the Swift Current Broncos who was initially wrong but then right about his prediction for one series. Can Penticton pull an Everett and get to the league final as an expansion team? To do that they'll have to beat....Everett. Also, the clash of the titans in the eastern conference as Prince Albert takes on Medicine Hat.

You didn't think we could let Wrestlemania weekend go by without some wrasslin talk with Ryan, could you? Don't worry wrestling haters we saved it for the end of the pod.

Hitting the road with a mission that blends a love for the game with a deep curiosity about the places it's played, All 60: A CHL Podcast is the audio journey of super fan Steve McLean. This isn't just a studio roundtable; it's an evolving travelogue anchored by weekly conversations. Steve connects directly with voices embedded in the three major junior leagues-the QMJHL, OHL, and WHL-turning correspondents into guides for what's happening on the ice and in their hometowns. You'll hear the immediate buzz about draft prospects, trades, and playoff races, but the discussions often veer into the texture of the journey itself: planning routes, finding the best local spots, and what makes each stop unique. The underlying goal-visiting every one of the 61 CHL arenas-provides a constant, compelling thread, making each episode a step closer to that complete picture. It’s a podcast for those who see hockey as a gateway to understanding communities across Canada, where analysis of a weekend slate of games sits comfortably beside tales of the road. The result is a show that captures the culture and sheer scale of major junior hockey, one conversation and one mile at a time.
