History

[edit]

The Real McCoys were once members of the Major Intermediate A Hockey League as the Dundas Merchants, and as the Dundas-Hamilton Tigers.[citation needed] The Tigers won the J. Ross Robertson Cup in 1985 as the league's playoffs champions.[1]

In 1986, the Real McCoys were the last Ontario Hockey Association team to win the Hardy Cup as National Senior "AA"/Intermediate "A" Champions. Only two OHA teams ever won this award, the other was the Georgetown Raiders.[citation needed] The Real McCoys played one year independent after the OHA Sr. League folded in 1987. After faltering in the first round of the national playoffs in 1988, the McCoys folded.[citation needed]

In 2000, the Real McCoys were resurrected in Major League Hockey and have played there ever since.[citation needed] The Real McCoys won the J. Ross Robertson Cup as playoffs champions in 2002, 2003, 2009, 2010, 2011 and 2012.[1]
