On April 2, 1976, at home in Selkirk, the Steelers won the MJHL title for the third consecutive year, capturing the Turnbull Memorial Trophy.
The MJHL expands to Thompson, the Thompson King Miners join the league's North Division. Kenora Muskies will shift to the South Division. A pair of teams change their names, the Winnipeg Monarchs become the Assiniboine Park Monarchs and the Kenora Muskies are renamed the Kenora Thistles, in honor of the Stanley Cup winning team.
