GMHL Showcase 2025 Recap

Day 2 of the Greater Metro Junior Hockey League showcase is now over and another successful showcase has come to an end. This year’s showcase proved to be the most evenly matched in recent memory, with the 10 inter-division matchups split right down the middle. Both the North and South Divisions finished with identical records of 5 wins, 4 losses, and 1 overtime loss, highlighting the balance of competition across the league. Out of all 13 competing teams, only two went 2–0 or 0–2:

Niagara Predators – the only perfect 2–0 team

Richmond Hill Rampage – the only 0–2 team

Everyone else split their games. The GMHL would like to thank its players for the quality of hockey they displayed over the last two days. As well, we would like to thank everyone who has taken part in making this event run successfully.
