RBC Cup Speculation

The Canadian Junior A Hockey League announced today its Top 15 rankings for the week of March 30th to April 5th. Last week’s rankings and the leagues in which the teams belong to are in parenthesis. Some of these teams have been at the top of the Junior A rankings almost the entire season.
