What is the Prairie Junior Hockey League. Besides the obvious that it is a junior hockey league located in the Prairies. The Prairie Junior Hockey League started in 2007 with teams combining from 2 junior B leagues in Saskatchewan. It consists of 13 teams across the province. The only alumni that has made the NHL that I can find out of this league was Derek Boogard.(RIP) But with that as an example and knowing Boogards hockey skill one can imagine the calibre of this league. Looks alot like a glorified beer league. Although quite a few players have moved up to play in the SJHL the Prairie Junior League looks like a final destination league for players that still haven't lost the dream or just want to play a little competitive hockey for fun.
I am still researching more on this league and will keep you informed the more I find.
