Class-action suit says North America's major junior hockey system violates U.S. antitrust law

Junior Hockey Antitrust Lawsuit
A class action suit was filed Wednesday, Feb. 14, 2024, in U.S. District Court arguing that the major junior hockey system in North America violates federal antitrust law. The lawsuit, brought by divisions of the World Association of Icehockey Players Unions and two individual former major junior players, takes aim at the Quebec Maritimes Junior Hockey League, Ontario Hockey League and Western Hockey that make up the Canadian Hockey League, as well as the NHL. The plaintiffs allege the leagues exploit teenagers in the sport by restricting their ability to pick where to play and, as a result, limiting their compensation.
