1943 Memorial Cup

Canadian junior ice hockey championship

The 1943 Memorial Cup final was the 25th junior ice hockey championship of the Canadian Amateur Hockey Association (CAHA). The finals were held at Maple Leaf Gardens in Toronto. CAHA president Frank Sargent chose the location to maximize profits, which were reinvested into minor ice hockey in Canada.[1]

The Memorial Cup trophy

It was the first Memorial Cup final series to use a best-of-seven series format. Winnipeg won their second Memorial Cup, defeating Oshawa 4 games to 2.
