List of MJHL seasons

The 2012–13 season was the Manitoba Junior Hockey League's (MJHL) 96th season of operation.

Season highlights

[edit]
  • The Winnipeg Saints are sold to a group from Virden in April 2012 and relocate to the southwestern Manitoba community. The team is renamed the Virden Oil Capitals and moves to the Sherwood Division. The Winnipeg Blues are now the sole team based in Winnipeg.[1]
  • The Steinbach Pistons are purchased by a group of local investors and become a community-owned organization.[2]
  • The league shortens its regular season schedule from 341 games to 330. Each team plays two fewer games as a result.
  • The league holds its annual showcase event October 4–6 at the MTS Iceplex.
  • The Steinbach Pistons join the MJHL playoffs for the first time in ten years, defeat the two-time defending champion Portage Terriers, and then upset the league's top two teams from the regular season, the Winnipeg Blues and Dauphin Kings, to win their organization's first ever Turnbull Cup.[3]
  • The Pistons qualify for the newly created Western Canada Cup, but do not advance past the round robin.
