5. The Windsor, Nova Scotia based Windsor Royals (NSRJHL) were renamed from the Avon River Rats during the 2018 off-season as the team had run into issues over the copyright with the team's then logo as it was not given permission by the Albany River Rats then of the American Hockey League to use the logo. The executive of the staff reached back to the past and named the team in honour of the previous Junior B team in town.
