Although the Oilers won the 2015 EHL Champion, the Northern Cyclones advanced to the National Championships as the Oilers were stripped of the championship for the use of two ineligible import players from Sweden. The players were ruled ineligible due to a paperwork issue with USA Hockey. The issue was discovered by the league when they were preparing paperwork for the 2015 USA Hockey Tier III Junior National Championship for both teams during the final series. The two players in question were not allowed to play in the fifth and deciding game of the series but the issue was not able to be resolved by the start of the tournament and the Northern Cyclones were sent as the league representative. As of July 21, 2015 the league lists the 2015 playoff champions as "Vacant".
