The winner of the playoffs competed in the Maritime-Hockey North Junior C Championships.
Dating back to the late 1960s, the NBJHL was an elite Maritime league.
Left with a void of no formal junior hockey league within the province, the NBJHL was formed in 2003.
While operating exclusively as a Junior C league, starting in 2007, the League was allowed to send its top team to the Don Johnson Cup as a Jr. B representative.
With this, the league ceased operations, and the Hurricanes moved up to Junior B thus ending the tenure of the NBJHL.
