His dad proudly sported Wiebe’s Chiefs jersey from when he was our Captain, while his mom wore his Mission jersey, a nod to where it all began.

It was a night to remember, not just for Abram, but for everyone who has supported him along the way, including the entire Chiefs organization. We couldn’t be prouder of a player who made such a lasting impact both on the ice and in the Chilliwack community.

We wish Abram all the best as he begins his professional career.

It wasn’t just Wiebe making headlines this weekend.

On the University front, two Chiefs alumni, Brady Milburn (2021–2025) and Quentin Miller (2024–2025), captured an NCAA National Championship with the Denver Pioneers.

In a tightly contested final, Wisconsin struck first, taking a 1–0 lead in the opening period and holding it through the second. But in the third period, Denver came alive. With relentless pressure and timely execution, they found the back of the net twice, completing a dramatic comeback to claim the national title.

Milburn spent four seasons with the Chiefs and showed tremendous growth during his time in Chilliwack. Watching his development and seeing him reach this level is something the entire organization is incredibly excited about.

“It’s an incredible and surreal feeling; it was an unbelievable experience with a group of amazing guys,” said Milburn. “I made a ton of memories and brothers I’ll have for life. It’s something I’ll always cherish and be forever grateful for.”

Miller, who played an important role during the Chiefs’ playoff push last season, has continued to elevate his game at the university level. From earning a couple of NCHC Goaltender of the Week recognitions to Goaltender of the Month honours, it’s been impressive to watch him establish himself and succeed at such a high level.

We’re thrilled to see both Brady and Quentin win the Championship and look forward to what lies ahead for them.

Moments like these are a reminder of what Chiefs hockey is all about, developing players not only for success at the next level but for lifelong achievements. Seeing former Chiefs go on to reach milestones like NHL debuts and national championships is something the entire organization and community take pride in.
