Rimouski is still in it but likely going down to Drummondville.

Why hasn't Calgary hosted the Memorial Cup in more than 40 years?
Well, the Giants were trying to stay in the playoffs so they weren't going to be rusty for 2 months waiting to play in the Memorial Cup. You still want to keep playing, and no team wants to just lose onpurpose. You come to the rink to play hard and win.
