The 2025 Memorial Cup championship tournament is underway in Rimouski. The host Océanic, the Medicine Hat Tigers (Western Hockey League), London Knights (Ontario Hockey League) and Moncton Wildcats (Quebec Maritimes Junior Hockey League) are competing for the 105th Memorial Cup. Before the opening game between Rimouski and Medicine Hat on May 23, Océanic defenceman Olivier Théberge was surprised to see his father carry the trophy out for the ceremonial faceoff. Capt. Erick Théberge, who was deployed in Latvia with the Canadian Armed Forces, received special permission to travel to Rimouski to watch his son play in the tournament. The Memorial Cup was established in 1919 by James T. Sutherland, a captain in the Canadian Armed Forces during the First World War, to honour those who died in service to their country.
