Silvertips' Landon DuPont Reaching Exceptional Status Records In Dominant Memorial Cup Outing

After posting two assists over his first two games, the 17-year-old picked up his first two goals of the tournament as the Everett Silvertips defeated the Chicoutimi Sagueneens in the semifinal.

With his goals, DuPont became just the second exceptional status player in CHL history to score at a Memorial Cup, joining Joe Veleno, who scored three times for the Saint John Sea Dogs in 2017.

DuPont's performance was extra special as there was a chance that he would miss Friday's semifinal.

Despite the uncertainty of playing in Friday's semifinal game for the Everett Silvertips, Landon DuPont put on a dominant performance to help his team advance to the 2026 Memorial Cup final and is reaching records among exceptional status players.
