1962-63 Prince Edward Island Junior Playoffs

The Charlottetown Old Spain Penguins were the only Junior team in the province playing in the Provincial Intermediate A League which was a Senior Intermediate level league. The Penguins also particpated in the league playoffs which doubled at the provincial intermediate playoffs where they lost in the semifinals.

The Penguins would defeat the Fredericton Monarchs in the semifinals 11 goals to 8 and defeated the Dartmouth Hoyt's Movers 3 games to none in the Regional Final. However, the Glace Bay Jr. Miners protested that the Dartmouth Hoyt's Movers had used an ineligible player duing the Nova Scotia Provincial final and the Maritimes Amateur Hockey Association agreed to the protest and ordered a single game special final between the Charlottetown Old Spain Penguins an d athe Glace Bay Jr. Miners which was won by the Penguins 9 to 5. The Penguins would then advance to the 1962-63 Eastern Canada Tier 2 Junior Playoffs.

The Tier 2 Junior Playoffs were decided upon to be held between the champions of the Ottawa District, Quebec Amateur Hockey Association, and Maritimes Amateur Hockey Association who had decided to hold a seperate playoffs and not play for the Memorial Cup. The teams were not told they were not going to be participating any further in the Memorial Cup playoffs until the start of the series between Charlottetown and Ottawa. The Penguins would lose in what was scheduled to be the semifinals 3 games to none to the Ottawa Montagnards. At this point Quebec still had not crowned its champion and the Montagnards were still mad about the decision not being allowed to play for the Memorial Cup and decided to disband for the season instead of having to wait two more weeks for the Quebec playoffs to end. There was no final series and the champions of the 1962-63 Northern Ontario Junior Playoffs and 1962-63 OHA Junior A Playoffs would playof for the Eastern spot in the 1962-63 Memorial Cup Final.
