The WHL announced two separate suspensions on Friday. Swift Current Broncos Head Coach Dan DeSilva has been suspended five-game while Lethbridge Hurricanes GM Peter Anholt has been suspended through November 26 for violating the WHL's Standards of Conduct. On top of the suspensions, both organizations have been fined $10,000. As per the media release, "The investigation found that DeSilva, in the process of administering player discipline, breached the WHL Standards of Conduct during two separate on-ice incidents – one occurring during WHL Regular Season game #128 at Prince Albert, and the other during a Broncos practice Monday, October 27." In a corresponding move, Swift Current has announced that DeSilva have announced his resignation as head coach. Regan Darby will assume the role of Head Coach on an interim basis until further notice. Darby has been with the organization since 2023-24, serving as assistant coach for the last three seasons. For Anholt, the media release said, "The investigation found that Anholt breached the WHL Standards of Conduct through use of intimidating behaviour and language during a post-game address to players in the dressing room following WHL Regular Season game #152 versus Edmonton." The media release also included a statement from WHL Commissioner Dan Near, which said, "Accountability is a cornerstone of the WHL’s culture. The WHL holds all members – whether players, coaches, or executives – to clear and consistent standards of conduct. When those standards are not met, we will take the necessary steps to uphold integrity and protect the well-being of everyone involved in our game." As per the WHL, "Both situations were brought to the WHL’s attention through its anonymous 1-800 WHL Respect Line, which provides players, staff, and others associated with the WHL, with a confidential avenue to report concerns or incidents that may violate WHL standards."
