Junior B Nationals

Post by Junior B Fan »

There had been some talk in the past of having a Canada wide Junior B Nationals similar to Midget AAA or Junior A. However due to the sheer volume of Junior B leagues in Canada and the logistics this obviously never went ahead.

I am a scout from Western Canada so have seen lots of Junior B hockey out this way. Looking at rosters and watching videos of the GOJHL I have no doubt they would win a Junior B Nationals quite easily. Over half the teams are easily Junior A caliber. There is a quite large gap between the GOJHL and all other Junior B leagues in Canada from what I have seen.

Would the teams in Ontario ever be interested in a Junior B Nationals? Or even a Eastern Canada Nationals?

From what I have scouted, here would be my Junior B rankings in Canada:

1. Ontario
2. BC
3. Alberta
4. Saskatchewan
5. Quebec
6. Manitoba
7. Atlantic

Not likely.

I don't think the GOJHL will be a Jr. B league for much longer anyways, either.
