The Penticton Vees' final BCHL playoff run starts this week at the South Okanagan Events Centre (SOEC).
Penticton's quest for a record 15th Fred Page Cup begins Thursday (April 3) as it hosts the Okotoks Oilers for Game 1 of the playoffs' first round.
The Vees, who will join the Western Hockey League ahead of next season, finished with the BCHL's best regular-season record after posting a 41-8-5-0 record in 2024-2025. They will have home-ice advantage throughout the playoffs.
Okotoks, meanwhile, claimed the Interior Conference's eighth and final playoff spot after going 21-30-3-0.
The Vees won three of four regular-season meetings against the Alberta-based club this season.
Team officials released the full schedule for the best-of-seven series following the Vees' 5-1 loss to Salmon Arm on Sunday.
