The '''Kingston Frontenacs''' are a [[junior ice hockey]] team in the [[Ontario Hockey League]], based in [[Kingston, Ontario]], [[Canada]]. The team is coached by [[Doug Gilmour]] and plays home games at the [[K-Rock Centre]], opened in 2008.

Team history predates the OHA, back to 1945, to a team known as the Kingston Victorias. This franchise was founded in the OHA in [[1973–74 OHA season|1973–74]], then known as the [[Kingston Canadians]] until [[1987–88 OHL season|1987–88]]. The team was briefly known as the [[Kingston Raiders]] in [[1988–89 OHL season|1988–89]], and as the Frontenacs ever since.

==History==
The "Frontenacs" name has been long associated with hockey in the Kingston area. Several teams have been known as the Frontenacs. The origin of the name "Frontenacs" comes from [[Louis de Buade de Frontenac]], governor of New France, who established [[Fort Frontenac]] on the site of present-day Kingston. The area surrounding Kingston is [[Frontenac County]].

From 1959 to 1963, there was also a [[Kingston Frontenacs (EPHL)|Kingston Frontenacs team]] in the [[Eastern Professional Hockey League (1959-1963)|Eastern Professional Hockey League]].

===Before 1945===
The city had a team in the Ontario Hockey Association (OHA) Jr. league in the 1910s. NHL Alumni from this team are [[Alec Connell]], [[Bill Cook]], [[Allan Davidson]] and [[Flat Walsh]].

There was also an Ontario Hockey Association (OHA) Sr. League team from the 1910s to 1940s. NHL Alumni from this team are [[Mickey Blake]], [[Glen Brydson]], [[Bill Cook]], [[Gus Giesebrecht]], [[Doug Stevenson]], [[Charles Stewart]], [[Carl Voss]] and [[Flat Walsh]].

Some members of this team then formed an entry in the Ontario Veteran's Hockey League (OVHL) during [[World War II]]. NHL Alumni from this team are [[Hub Macey]], [[Gus Marker]], [[Walt McCartney]] and [[Ed Nicholson]].

===1952–1973===
In 1952, the Kingston Victoria were renamed the Kingston Frontenacs. This team played at the Junior B level, then later at the Junior A level. This Frontenacs team lost in the 1963 [[Sutherland Cup]] final to the [[St. Marys Lincolns]], 4 games to 1.

===Kingston Canadians===
The Kingston Canadians arrival in the Ontario Hockey Association (OHA) for the 1973–74 season, was a result of the [[Montreal Junior Canadiens]] switch to the [[Quebec Major Junior Hockey League]] (QMJHL) in 1972. During the summer of 1972, the QMJHL had threatened a lawsuit against the OHA to force the Junior Canadiens to return to the Quebec-based league. To solve the problem, the OHA granted the Junior Canadiens franchise a "one-year suspension" of operations, while team ownership transferred the team and players into the QMJHL, renaming themselves the [[Montreal Bleu Blanc Rouge]] in the process.

After a one-year hiatus, the OHA then reactivated the suspended franchise under new ownership and with new players, calling the team the Kingston Canadians. The new Kingston team was essentially an expansion franchise promoted from the OHA's [[Ontario Provincial Junior A Hockey League|Tier II]] league, that had only common name to share with the old Junior Canadiens. The Tier II Frontenacs originated in the [[Eastern Junior B Hockey League]] and date back to at least the early 1940s as the Kingston Victorias. However, in some OHA histories (such as the annual Media Guide) the Kingston team is still shown as the legitimate successors of the Junior Canadiens' legacy.

===Kingston Raiders===
Following a change in ownership the club was renamed '''[[Kingston Raiders]]''' for one season in 1988–89. Due to ownership problems, the team was sold again following that season.

===Kingston Frontenacs===
In 1989, the new ownership, including Wren Blair and Bob Attersley, renamed the team '''Kingston Frontenacs''' after the [[Kingston Frontenacs (EPHL)|Eastern Professional Hockey League team]] of which they had both been members. The uniforms and logos were revived from the old franchise. The city embraced and welcolmed the new ownership. Wren Blair and Bob Attersley were both hockey legends in their own right. In 1997 Wren Blair would be honoured with the '''Bill Long Award''' for distinguished service in the OHL. The club was sold to the Springer family of Kingston in June 1998, with Doug Springer becoming the Owner and Governor.

The Kingston franchise has the second-longest [[List of CHL franchise post-season droughts|championship drought]] in the OHL (second to the [[Sudbury Wolves]] by one year), and the fourth-longest in the [[Canadian Hockey League]]. The lone division title won by the Frontenacs was in the [[1994–95 OHL season|1994–95]] season where the team won the OHL East Division, represented by the [[Leyden Trophy]]. In the [[1992–93 OHL season]], the Frontenacs lost the conference final to Peterborough.

==Coaches==
Larry Mavety coached the Frontenacs for much of the teams history. He originally coached the team in 1988–89, when they were still known as the [[Kingston Raiders]]. In 1989–90, the first season the franchise was known as the Frontenacs, he won the [[Matt Leyden Trophy]] as the OHL Coach of the Year. Mavety returned to Kingston in 1997 to become the head coach once again, and stayed in that position until midway through the 2002–03 season when he stepped down to focus on his general manager duties. After a slow start in the 2007–08 season, Mavety once again found himself coaching the Frontenacs, where he remained until November, 2008 when it was announced that [[Doug Gilmour]] had signed a 3-year contract as the team's new coach. Concurrently, it was announced that Mavety would stay on as general manager.

The franchise has had two coaches go on to the [[National Hockey League|NHL]] as a head coach; [[Dave Allison]], who coached Kingston from 1992–94, coached the [[Ottawa Senators]] for 25 games in the 1995–96 season, while [[Gary Agnew]], who coached the Frontenacs from 1994–97, was an interim head coach for the [[Columbus Blue Jackets]] for five games in the 2006–07 season.

===Kingston Canadians (1973–1988)===
During the inaugural season of the [[Kingston Canadians]] in 1973–74, [[Jack Bownass]] was awarded the [[Matt Leyden Trophy]] as OHA Coach of the Year.

Former NHL defenceman [[Jim Morrison (ice hockey)|Jim Morrison]] coached the team from 1975–82, which was the longest stint a coach had when the club was known as the Canadians.

==Team uniforms and logos==
[[Image:Old frontenacs logo.jpg|right|100px]]
The original uniforms and logos of the OHL Frontenacs were revived from the EPHL franchise, which was affiliated with the Boston Bruins. The logo featured a yellow letter 'K' with a black outline, surrounded by black spokes leading to a yellow circle border with the name Kingston Frontenacs in black.

In 2002, the team adopted a new logo with a stylized [[Louis de Buade de Frontenac|Count Frontenac]]. The jerseys feature a star striping pattern similar to Dallas of the NHL, and a modified version of the former "K" logo is used on the shoulder.

In 2007, the Frontenacs unveiled a 3rd jersey, which will be black, yellow and white, and very similar looking to the [[Boston Bruins]] jerseys from the early 1970s. The "K" logo will be used on the front of the jersey. The Frontenacs began wearing these jerseys on February 22, 2008, which was the same night that they opened their new arena.

In 2008, The Frontenacs Unveiled a new 3rd jersey which was warn at home between opening night and new years barring 2 games where the black star jersey was warn. The New Jersey was a white version of the black alternate which was warn for the second half of the season.

In 2009, The Frontenacs along with all CHL teams unveiled new uniforms using RBK EDGE templates.
