The 2023 Memorial Cup standings
To decide the playoff seeding, the four clubs will play each other once in a round-robin format throughout three games.
While the Nos. 2 and 3 teams will compete in a semifinal, the No. 1 seed goes directly to the title game. The day before the semifinal game, if necessary, a tiebreaker will take place. For wins in regulation or overtime, teams receive two points, but for every other kind of loss, they receive zero points.
