1983–84 OJHL season
Encyclopedia
The 1983–84 OJHL season
is the 12th season of the Ontario Junior Hockey League
(OJHL). The eight teams of the league played a 42-game season. The all eight teams made the playoffs.
The winner of the OJHL playoffs, the Orillia Travelways, won the OHA Buckland Cup and then the Dudley Hewitt Cup
as Central Canadian champions. In 1984, the Callaghan Cup
champion from the east did not compete in the National playdowns, so the Travelways gained a direct berth into the 1984 Centennial Cup. The Travelways failed to win the Centennial Cup.
