Key Information
History
[edit]The team was founded in Port Coquitlam as the Port Coquitlam Buckeroos until its relocation to Port Moody in 2006.[citation needed]
In 2025, the league announced plans to promote the Chilliwack Jets, Coastal Tsunami, Delta Ice Hawks, Grandview Steelers, Langley Trappers, Richmond Sockeyes and Ridge Meadows Flames to a new Tier 1 division beginning in the 2025–26 season.[1][2] Under the plan, the Abbotsford Pilots, Aldergrove Ironmen, Mission City Outlaws, North Vancouver Wolf Pack, Port Coquitlam Trailblazers, Port Moody Panthers, Surrey Knights and White Rock Whalers would remain as Tier 2, as well as a planned expansion team to be based in Cloverdale.[3] However, when the plan was put to the franchise owners for a vote, it failed to pass by the required two-thirds majority, with 8 members voting for and 7 voting against.[4] The vote was divided between the franchises that had been selected for promotion, who voted in favour of the motion, and those not selected for promotion, who voted against it.[4]
The Panthers qualified for their first postseason since 2012, due to the introduction of a new format where every team gets in, no matter their record. As the 6th placed team, Port Moody will play the Mission City Outlaws in the first round.[5]
