In the last ten games after some player additions, the Whitecaps lost only two of their last ten games. In the playoffs Vancouver went on a run as the fourth seed. They first had a play-in round series against Miami FC Blues and Romário before upsetting regular season champion or Commissioner's Cup winner and Canadian rival Montreal Impact with two second half of overtime goals in the second leg away in La belle province.

The Voyageurs Cup was a competition organized by The Voyageurs supporters' group to determine the best Canadian soccer club playing in the USL W-League between 2004 and 2006. Head-to-head matches between Canadian clubs during the regular season were added to a table, where the top team were awarded the Women's Voyageurs Cup trophies. Because there was no inter-conference play in the regular season, an east and west team were both crowned at the end of each season. In 2006 however, the coincidental meeting between the east and west champion in the playoff finals allowed the Voyageurs to additionally honour a "Super Cup" champion.
