Manor Memorial Cup: Game 1 Highlights, Including Woolley Goal and Fight

[LGKbot]

Opening night of the 2026 Memorial Cup did not disappoint. In addition to some Kings on Kings crime — in the form of LA prospects Jared Woolley (Kitchener) and Vojtech Cihar (Kelowna) facing off — there was also the battle for an early advantage in the short tournament. And the OHL champion Rangers wasted no time putting the other three teams on notice.

Kitchener earned a dominant 5-0 victory, including a goal and a fight from Woolley.

Here are some highlights (note: Woolley wears No. 51 and plays on the top D-pair):

INSANE SEQUENCE. Čihař out of the box gets a breakaway, misses. Puck goes the other way and Woolley drops down low to score!!! #GoKingsGo #MemorialCup pic.twitter.com/dib051xWN7
