1992–93 MetJHL season

The 1992–93 MetJHL season is the 2nd season of the Metro Junior A Hockey League (MetJHL). The 13 teams of the Fullan and Bauer Divisions competed in a 48-game schedule. The top 6 teams in each division made the playoffs.

The winner of the MetJHL playoffs, the Wexford Raiders, could not proceed further in the National playdowns as the MetJHL was not a member of the Ontario Hockey Association. However, the Raiders were permitted to play a 2-game series for charity against the OHA's Central Junior League's champion, the Barrie Colts. The Raiders won both games.

Changes

• Aurora Eagles join MetJHL from CJBHL.
• Mimico Monarchs move and become the Richmond Hill Riot.
• Thornhill Thunderbirds move and become the Mississauga Senators.
• Richmond Hill Rams move and become the North York Rangers.

Exhibition Series vs. CJAHL

The Barrie Colts of the OHA's Central Junior A League and the Wexford Raiders of the Metro League played a pair of exhibition games head-to-head for charity. The purpose of the games was to match the probably champions of the two leagues head-to-head to see where each league's talent level stood if the OHA was to allow both leagues in as sanctioned Junior A leagues for the 1993–94 season. Wexford won both games by narrow margins, but the second game was marred by an incident involving a fight, initiated by the Barrie Colts, that spilled into the crowd.

Wexford Raiders defeated Barrie Colts (CJAHL) 7-6

Wexford Raiders defeated Barrie Colts (CJAHL) 4-3
