Known for a "blue-collar and bruised" style of play, the Wolverines have turned the Rotary Spirit Centre into a fortress where the boards are loud and the coffee is always scalding. On this podcast, we break down every heavy hit, every overtime thriller, and every post-game legend born in the dressing room. © 2026 Justin Jackson 5fa535de-8565-5276-8f87-a83d73c92446 yes en Thu, 14 May 2026 15:40:31 -0700 Thu, 14 May 2026 15:41:03 -0700 https://img.transistorcdn.com/t_mZayZ3Va2nNbuVX9C1bRwcJQbpq1mfnLWukNUPNTA/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:1400/h:1400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS82YjY0/NzQwMjEwODRkMGQ0/ZjkyYjJiNDlhOGMw/MWM5YS5wbmc.jpg The Wolverines Hockey Podcast episodic Justin Jackson Hailing from the heart of Alberta’s grain belt, the Westlock Wolverines are more than just a hockey team—they’re a Saturday night ritual.

In this episode, we’re breaking down a physical, high-stakes matchup that had the Westlock faithful on their feet until the final horn.


Inside the Den: Game Highlights

  • The "Grain Elevator" Line Dominates: How the top line used their size to control the cycle and wear down the opposition’s defense.
  • Between the Pipes: A deep dive into the goaltending masterclass that kept the Wolverines in it during a shaky second period.
  • The Turning Point: Analyzing the 5-on-3 penalty kill in the third period that shifted the momentum for good.

Impact Players of the Night

  1. #19 "Cully" Cullingham: For netting the shorthanded breakaway that broke the tie.
  2. The Defensive Pair: Assessing the chemistry between the "Bash Brothers" on the blue line.

Coming Up Next

We look ahead to the upcoming road trip and discuss whether the team can maintain this intensity away from the home crowd. Plus, we answer listener questions about the recent roster shuffle.

Listener Shoutout: "Shoutout to the 'Section 10' crew for bringing the energy and the cowbells on Friday night.
