The 2021–22 WHL season was the 56th season of the Western Hockey League (WHL). The league played a full regular season schedule for the first time since the 2018–19 season. The season began on October 1, 2021, and ended on April 17, 2022.[1]

The WHL announced in the summer of 2021 that no inter-conference games would be played during the regular season.[2] On August 16, the WHL announced a mandatory COVID-19 vaccination policy for players, hockey operations staff, officials, and all other employees who would regularly interact with players.[3] On September 8, the WHL announced that due to COVID-19 border restrictions, the schedule had been re-aligned so that the B.C. Division and U.S. Division would not play inter-division games until at least November.[4] The Winnipeg Ice, playing their first full WHL season since relocating from Cranbrook, British Columbia in 2019—with their first two seasons shortened by the COVID-19 pandemic—won their first Scotty Munro Memorial Trophy for topping the regular season standings.[5]

The playoffs—the first since 2019—began on April 22 and ended on June 13.[6] The Edmonton Oil Kings won their third Ed Chynoweth Cup, defeating the Seattle Thunderbirds and earning the right to participate in the 2022 Memorial Cup tournament, which was hosted by the Saint John Sea Dogs of the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League at TD Station in Saint John, New Brunswick.[7]
