Welcome to this edition of the 2026 WHL Playoffs daily recap. Every day, The Hockey News' WHL team will provide a summary of all the games that happened the night before. Here is the recap for March 29, 2026. Edmonton Oil Kings 4, Saskatoon Blades 3 (OT) Series Tied 1-1 The Edmonton Oil Kings bounced back in a dramatic Sunday matinee at Rogers Place. After surrendering a late two-goal lead in regulation, Ethan MacKenzie played the hero, scoring a power-play goal 16:54 into overtime to even the series. The Oil Kings' special teams were the story of the game, finishing 3-for-6 on the man advantage. Despite the loss, Saskatoon’s David Lewandowski had a standout performance, tallying a goal and two assists. Calgary Hitmen 6, Brandon Wheat Kings 5 (OT) Calgary Leads Series 2-0 In a high-scoring affair that stood in stark contrast to their triple-overtime defensive battle in Game 1, the Calgary Hitmen edged the Brandon Wheat Kings in another OT thriller. Julien Maze delivered a historic performance, fueling the Calgary offence with a massive six-point night (2G, 4A) to lead the Hitmen to a 2-0 series cushion. Brandon's Jaxon Jacobson kept the Wheat Kings in the hunt with a four-point effort of his own.
