2019-20 GOJHL season

This is the '''2019-20 Greater Ontario Junior Hockey League season. '''This is the league's 70th season overall dating back to the Eastern Junior B Hockey League, Metro Junior A Hockey League, and the Western Junior B Hockey League in 1950. The league has used the Greater Ontario Junior Hockey League name since 2007 when 3 leagues (Mid-Western Junior Hockey League, Golden Horseshoe Junior Hockey League and Western Ontario Hockey League) merged to form the present league.

The balance of the league's season was cancelled on March 12th when Hockey Canada announced all activity under its' jurisdiction was cancelled for the balance of the season.

Membership Changes

 * The Caledonia Corvairs requested a one-year leave of absence for the 2018-19 season after completion of the 2017-18 season return to play for the 2019-20 season.
 * After having moved to Lockport, New York for the 2018-19 season the Lockport Regals revert to the Buffalo Regals name.
 * After having an Ontario Junior Hockey League team relocate to Brantford for the 2018-19 season, the Brantford 99ers are renamed the Brantford Bandits.
 * In late August 2020 it was announced that the Buffalo Regals would be sitting out the 2020-21 season. The Regals were sitting out due to the fact they can't cross the US-Canada border to play their games.

Format
Each conference will hold its own playoffs with 8 teams qualifying for each conference. The three conference champions and the conference runner-up with the best "playoff record to date" qualify for the Sutherland Cup semifinals. The wildcard play the team with the better record of the two they didn't play in the conference final. All playoff series are best-of-seven. The Sutherland Cup champion does not advance any further as there is no Eastern Canada championship at the Junior B level.
