Hockey is about more than what happens on the ice. It’s the road trips to the rink, the family traditions, the friends in the stands, and the communities that come together to cheer on their teams.
As the Official Meat Snack of the Western Hockey League (WHL), McSweeney’s is proud to support the fans who bring the energy to every game. We're celebrating their team spirit, adding to the excitement in the stands, and helping make the moments around the game just as memorable as the action on the ice.
