The 2011–12 WHL season was the 46th season of the Western Hockey League (WHL). The regular season began in September 2011 and ended in March 2012. The playoffs began on March 22 and ended in early May when the regular season-champion Edmonton Oil Kings won their first Ed Chynoweth Cup, defeating the Portland Winterhawks in the championship series and earning a berth in the 2012 Memorial Cup tournament.[1] This was the inaugural season of the Victoria Royals—the team relocated to Victoria, British Columbia from Chilliwack, where they had played as the Chilliwack Bruins from 2006 until 2011.[2]
