History

In 2015 the South Side Lynx won their first league championship and then proceeded to be the first PEI representative to advance to the Maritime-Hockey North Junior C Championship final game. In the championship game the Lynx played against the Baffin Blizzard with both teams vying to be the first team from their province/territory to claim a Maritime-Hockey North title. The Baffin Blizzard prevailed, winning 6–5.

After a one-year absence a Summerside team, now known as the Crunch, was announced as returning to the league for the 2016–17 season.

Sherwood Metros became the first PEI team to win the Maritime-Hockey North Championship in 2018. The Metros defeated South Side Lynx 4–1 in the final.[1]

In January 2019 the South Side Lynx ceased operations due to a lack of healthy players. The team posted a 5–13–0–2 record, last in the five-team league.[2]

gollark: I run containers, though my stuff gets so little use that usually it's below 1% use.
gollark: Maybe even a small raspberry pi cluster if you wanted.
gollark: Apparently so, though I'm not sure you'd be able to get lower powered ones which fit the socket.
gollark: I think the E5504s are awful slow ones. Probably basically anything else would beat them and modern ones tend to use less power.
