PJHL Power Rankings – December 31, 2025

CAMBRIDGE, ON – With the holiday season in full swing, this week’s PJHL schedule featured a lighter slate of games, resulting in no movement within the Power Rankings. Limited action across the league meant teams largely held their positions as players and staff balanced competition with the Christmas break.

The Essex 73’s continue to sit atop the rankings, followed closely by the Hanover Barons and Dundas Blues, who remain steady among the league’s top contenders. Further down the list, teams from fifth through tenth also maintain their spots, with minimal opportunities to separate themselves due to the reduced number of matchups.

As the calendar turns to the New Year and a full schedule resumes, teams will look to make their push and create movement in the weeks ahead.
