Though the Regina Pats are not on their way to Windsor, Ont., to compete in the Memorial Cup, the season they just had was a standout one nonetheless. The Pats' season came to an end on Sunday where they fell 4-3 in overtime to the Seattle Thunderbirds in Game 6 of the WHL championship series. It was the Pats' best season in ages, and the first time they had an opportunity to play for the WHL's Ed Chynoweth Cup since 1983-1984. For the Seattle Thunderbirds, it was the first WHL title in their 40-year history. Regina Pats captain Adam Brooks said the season, which saw the Pats finish with the top record in the Canadian Hockey League, was the best season he was a part of as a Pat.
