1989 Memorial Cup

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The 1989 Memorial Cup occurred May 6-May 13 at the brand new Saskatchewan Place in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. Participating teams were the Western Hockey League champion Swift Current Broncos, the WHL hosts, the Saskatoon Blades, as well as the winners of the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League and Ontario Hockey League which were the Laval Titan and Peterborough Petes. In the first ever all-WHL final (in fact, an all-Saskatchewan final), an overflow, bi-partisan crowd of 12,062 saw Swift Current beat Saskatoon in overtime to win their first Memorial Cup.
