KINGSTON FRONTENACS GAMEDAY REPORT 

BACK HOME FOR A RESET 

AFTER A LONG ROAD TRIP, THE FRONTENACS ARE LOOKING TO REBOUND AGAINST THE STEELHEADS 

vs 

While there aren’t too many game 7 situations 

in the regular season–save for the last game of 

the season that could determine a post-season 

berth–the Frontenacs could easily view tonight’s 

tilt against the OHL’s 20th place team a mustwin. 

After the three-game Northern Ontario road 

trip last weekend, with losses in Sault Ste. Marie, 

Sudbury, and North Bay, the Frontenacs will be 

looking to right their fortunes as of late against 

the Mississauga Steelheads, a team that has only 

managed two wins this season. 

The Steelheads’ season has been an uphill climb, 

especially on the road where they have yet to win 

a game. The Frontenacs will be looking to do their 

part in keeping that streak going. 

Kingston has owned Mississauga since the 

franchise was renamed from the St. Mike’s 

Majors. In the past five seasons, the Frontenacs 

have managed 13 wins between the two teams 

while the Steelheads have managed to win 4 

times. Even last season, when the Steelheads 

were the team to beat in the East, winning the 

OHL’s Eastern Conference, the Frontenacs 

managed to sweep the regular season series, 

winning all 4 games. 

After their hot start to the regular season, with 

5 wins and only 1 loss in their first 6 games, 

the Kingston Frontenacs are looking to snap a 

6-game losing streak. While they lost 2 of the 3 

games last weekend by 1 goal, the 8-2 loss on 

Sunday to the North Bay Battalion stung. 

TRICK OR TREAT SUNDAY: We’ll be back 

in action at 2:00 p.m. on Sunday when the 

Saginaw Spirit make their only visit to Kingston. 

Join us for a Sunday afternoon game as we add 

Halloween to hockey with trick or treat stations 

set up on the concourse for the kids. - KF

DEFENSE FIRST 

Last weekend’s 0-3 road trip record had a lot to do with 

the fact that Kingston gave up 17 goals in just 3 games. 

An average of nearly 6 goals against is a recipe for disaster. 

Before they worry about scoring goals, the Frontenacs 

need to clean up their own end. Strong defensive 

positioning, getting in the passing and shooting lanes and 

taking the body are all basic hockey plays that will help 

Kingston clean up their own zone, and hopefully will lead 

to breakouts and offensive opportunities. 

POSITIVE THOUGHTS 

It has been a rough couple of weeks for the Frontenacs. 

Losing six in a row is always tough to deal with, but when 

five of the six losses come by a single goal it can really hit 

hard. Kingston needs to put that out of their minds. It was 

just a few weeks ago that they started the season with a 5-1 

record, including a win over this same Steelheads team. 

They need to find a way to remember the positives from 

those games. They know they can string wins together 

and they know they are a good team. It is just a matter of 

that being what is in their head instead of the tough times 

from the past few weeks. 

JUST KEEP 

SHOOTING 

One reason the Steelheads have 

had such a bad start to the season 

is that their goals against average is 

the worst in the Eastern Conference. 

Coming into this game the team GAA 

was at 4.54. The combined save 

percentage of the two goaltenders 

is just .864. Statistically speaking, if 

you get lots of shots on goal, you are 

going to score a fair number of goals 

against the Steelheads. That is exactly 

what Kingston needs to do. Based on 

averages, if Kingston can hit the 40- 

shot mark they should score 4 or 5 

goals. That should be enough goals to 

win a game on most nights. The more 

shots they get, the better the chance 

of a positive result. - KF

ROOKIES GET NATIONAL CALL 

by Doug Graham, Kingston Whig-Standard 

Kingston Frontenacs rookies Cody Morgan 

and Evan Brand have received the call to play 

for Canada at the World Under-17 Challenge 

next month in British Columbia. 

Morgan and Brand were among 23 players 

chosen from the Ontario Hockey League to 

play at the Nov. 5-11 championship. Canada 

will have three squads — Team Red, Team 

Black and Team White — at the eight-team 

championship that will be hosted in Dawson 

Creek and Fort St. John, B.C. 

Morgan and Brand were informed of their 

selections Tuesday by Steve Staios, head 

of Hockey Canada’s Program of Excellence 

and also general manager of the Hamilton 

Bulldogs. 

“It is just an honor to be chosen for the chance 

to represent my country and to do the best I 

can. It will be a great experience,” Brand, who 

is one of five OHL defencemen selected, said. 

“I get to learn from new friends and from new 

coaches as well. What do they have to say and 

what can I take away from them,” the 16-yearold 

Brand added. 

“Pretty cool, pretty awesome,” said Morgan, 

who is happy to have his teammate and fellow 

billet roommate selected along with him. 

Morgan, who has two goals and three points 

in his first nine OHL games, said it will be 

another learning experience. 

“Whatever role I get, I am going to embrace it 

and go with it,” Morgan said. “Whatever the 

coach tells me to do, I am going to do it and 

do it to the best of my ability.”

Frontenacs head coach Jay Varady said it is 

a great opportunity for Brand and Morgan to 

show their skills against their own age group. 

“They come into the OHL and are the youngest 

players in the group. Now they get to play 

against their peers. It’s a great opportunity for 

them to show their skills,” Varady said. 

“They will get to play in some different roles 

and then come back and hopefully build on 

that as they rejoin the team.” 

Brand, who has one assist and a plus/minus 

of +2 in the eight games he has played for 

the Frontenacs, sees playing in the World 

Under-17 Challenge as the chance to put to 

use what he has learned so far in the OHL. 

“I’ve gotten to know the pace of the OHL, so 

I’ve been getting a bit better at developing that. 

This will help me going into the tournament,” 

Brand said. “I’ll just use everything I’ve 

learned so far and then use everything I learn 

at the tournament to bring back to the OHL.” 

Morgan, Kingston’s first overall selection 

at the Priority Selection last April, said the 

tournament will be an opportunity to expand 

his hockey knowledge. 

“Try to pick up some tips from the coaches 

there and all that,” Morgan said. “When I come 

back, it will be the same way I am playing now. 

Just keep working hard.” - KF
