2018 Fred Page Cup: May 2-6 at Ottawa, Ont.
Host: Ottawa Jr. A Senators (CCHL)

THE FRED PAGE CUP

The Fred Page Cup became the Eastern Canadian championship in 1995 replacing the Callaghan Cup.  

The Callaghan Cup was originally awarded to the Atlantic Junior A Champion between the winner of Newfoundland, Prince Edward Island, New Brunswick and Nova Scotia, but after the three major Maritime leagues merged and Newfoundland’s final league departed the trophy had no real use.  

In 1995, the Quebec Provincial Junior Hockey League donated the Fred Page Cup to create an Eastern Canadian championship between the MHL, QJHL and the CCHL.

The champions from each to the three Eastern CJHL leagues in the MHL, LHJAAQ and the CCHL, along with a host team play a round robin tournament. The champion of this Fred Page Cup represents the CJHL's Eastern Region at the RBC Cup.

HISTORY OF THE CUP

The trophy is named after Fred Page, a pioneer of amateur hockey across the country.

Mr. Page is also an honoured member of the Hockey Hall of Fame.
