KINGSTON FRONTENACS GAMEDAY REPORT<br />

GREYHOUNDS RACE INTO KINGSTON<br />

DEFENDING WESTERN CONFERENCE CHAMPS MAKE ONLY VISIT THIS SEASON<br />

Last season, both the <strong>Kingston</strong> <strong>Frontenacs</strong> and<br />

Soo Greyhounds had great seasons come to an<br />

end at the hands of the Hamilton Bulldogs. <strong>Kingston</strong><br />

fell in 5 games in the Eastern Conference Final<br />

putting Hamilton in the OHL Championship Series<br />

where they beat the Soo Greyhounds in 6 games.<br />

Both teams come into this game with very different<br />

rosters than they had when those playoff series<br />

ended, but both teams return with their leading goal<br />

scorer.<br />

<strong>Kingston</strong>’s Jason Robertson led the <strong>Frontenacs</strong><br />

during the 2017-<strong>2018</strong> season with 41 goals. He<br />

and Brett Neumann have carried the load thus far,<br />

in terms of goals, for <strong>Kingston</strong> this season. They<br />

have combined for 7 of the 11 goals scored so<br />

far. Brendan Bonello has faced a lot of rubber already,<br />

in fact, more than any other goaltender in the<br />

league. His .915 save % has shown that he is ready<br />

to carry the load as a starter in the <strong>Kingston</strong> crease.<br />

Sault Ste. Marie was welcoming of the news they<br />

would get Morgan Frost back from the Philadelphia<br />

Flyers. He led the Greyhounds with 42 goals and<br />

was second in the OHL with 112 points last season.<br />

Another returning player that was welcomed back<br />

was goaltender Matthew Villalta from the Los Angeles<br />

Kings. In 49 regular season games last year,<br />

Villalta had 40 wins and a 2.58 GAA. So far this<br />

season, he is 2-0-1 with a spectacular 1.65 GAA.<br />

The Greyhounds have had the upper hand re-<br />

cently in the head to head series with the <strong>Frontenacs</strong>.<br />

They have won the last two games played in<br />

<strong>Kingston</strong> between the two clubs. Since moving to<br />

Leon’s Centre, the <strong>Frontenacs</strong> have a slight edge<br />

over the Greyhounds with a 5-4-1-0 record on<br />

home ice. Despite the Western Conference typically<br />

having some powerhouse teams, <strong>Kingston</strong> has a<br />

winning record against the West on home ice. They<br />

have played 100 games against Western teams at<br />

the Leon’s Centre and skated to a 46-41-9-4 record.<br />

THE ROOKIE AND THE VETERAN<br />

BONELLO AND DUGAS WORK BETWEEN THE PIPES FOR THE FRONTS THIS SEASON<br />

IAN MACALPINE<br />

by Ian MacAlpine<br />

<strong>Kingston</strong> Whig-Standard<br />

For <strong>Kingston</strong> <strong>Frontenacs</strong> rookie goalie Ryan Dugas<br />

pitching a shutout on the road in his first Ontario<br />

Hockey League game and being named the first star<br />

may be a hard accomplishment to top.<br />

On Saturday, Dugas, 17, stopped all 27 shots<br />

that came his way earning <strong>Kingston</strong> a 4-0 win over<br />

the Erie Otters.<br />

The <strong>Frontenacs</strong> are at home this weekend at the<br />

Leon’s Centre with a game Friday night at 7 p.m.<br />

against the Soo Greyhounds and Sunday at 2 p.m.<br />

against the Barrie Colts.<br />

Dugas said after practice at the Leon’s Centre<br />

on Wednesday that the shutout was something he’ll<br />

never forget.<br />

“It was a great experience,” he said.<br />

“A lot of guys on the team really helped me out,”<br />

he said. “If you go back and watch the game I’m<br />

sure you’ll see at least 12 shots that were blocked.”<br />

OFFICIAL GAMEDAY MAGAZINE, VOLUME 46, ISSUE 02<br />

“It seemed like every time, someone was out<br />

there at least trying to block a shot and a lot of the<br />

time they were successful with that.”<br />

Dugas couldn’t remember any big saves he<br />

made, especially late in the game, to preserve the<br />

shutout.<br />

“It got pretty hectic at the end, it seemed like<br />

they were in our end the last five minutes or it just<br />

seemed like that because I was so stressed I guess.”<br />

The shutout was in the back of his mind but<br />

Dugas tried not to think about it until the final buzzer.<br />

After just the one game Dugas stands first in<br />

goals against average and save percentage.<br />

Veteran Brendan Bonello has played the bulk of<br />

the games so far this season, starting four of the five<br />

games the <strong>Frontenacs</strong> have played. In all three of<br />

Bonello’s losses he’s allowed 10 goals and has kept<br />

the team in all games he’s played.<br />

In the first game of the season on September 20,<br />

a 4-0 loss to Peterborough, the <strong>Frontenacs</strong> were<br />

trailing 1-0 going into the third period. In his 3-1<br />

loss to Niagara last Friday, <strong>Kingston</strong> was again down<br />

by just one goal heading into the last period.<br />

During the <strong>Frontenacs</strong> opening night 5-2 win<br />

over Oshawa on September 21, Bonello shutout the<br />

Generals in the first period.<br />

The only slow start he’s had so far this season was<br />

his last game in Mississauga against the Steelheads<br />

on Sunday, where two of the three he allowed were<br />

first period goals in a 4-1 loss.<br />

Despite Bonello’s one win and three loss record<br />

so far this season he sports a goals against average<br />

of 3.03. and a save percentage of .915, good for<br />

10th in the league.<br />

“I think it’s been a good start so far on a personal<br />

level,” Bonello said after practice on Wednesday.<br />

“The team success is going to come later on, I think<br />

we haven’t played to the standard we wanted to but<br />

I think it’s all a learning curve right now and I think<br />

soon enough it will come and we’ll be hitting our<br />

stride.”<br />

Last season with the <strong>Frontenacs</strong> Bonello, 19,<br />

from Mississauga, only got into parts of 11 games<br />

behind starter Jeremy Helvig.<br />

He had come to <strong>Kingston</strong> last season after a<br />

trade from Saginaw.<br />

Bonello said he worked hard over the summer<br />

reducing his body fat and adding muscle while<br />

maintaining the same weight as last year knowing<br />

he’d probably get most of the playing time this<br />

season.<br />

He also refined his game over the summer<br />

months.<br />

“I worked with our <strong>Kingston</strong> goalie coaches<br />

[David and Marco Franco] in Toronto all summer<br />

long and I think that helped.”<br />

<strong>Frontenacs</strong> coach Kurtis Foster said both goalies<br />

have been playing great so far this season.<br />

“Brendan Bonello has come in and shown us<br />

he’s a capable guy in this league,” he said. “I think<br />

the last couple of years for him were trying and he<br />

didn’t get the opportunity he was looking for and this<br />

year he’s earned everything he’s got.”<br />

Foster called Dugas’ shutout “an amazing<br />

achievement.”<br />

“We played a solid game in front of him and<br />

OFFICIAL GAMEDAY MAGAZINE, VOLUME 46, ISSUE 02<br />

sometimes when you have a younger kid going in<br />

everybody wants to see him get the win so everybody<br />

worked a little harder that night.”<br />

Foster said the coaching staff hasn’t decided who<br />

will play this weekend or if the duties will be shared.<br />

“We’ll see what gives us the best chance to<br />

win this weekend but I think at the end of the day<br />

probably both deserve to get a chance.”<br />

Foster also can’t say yet how the playing time will<br />

be divided up this season.<br />

“Right now as you can see from the way it’s been<br />

that Brandon’s got the bulk of the work so far and<br />

mostly because he’s earned it and he’s been able to<br />

play strong games which has helped us and Ryan<br />

is going to get his chance and if he continues to<br />

play that way he’s going to make the decision hard<br />

on me.”<br />

Dugas was selected in the fourth round of the<br />

2017 OHL Priority Selection and spent last season<br />

close to his Hamilton home with the Ancaster<br />

Avalanche in the Greater Ontario Junior Hockey<br />

League where he put up good numbers including<br />

a 2.01 goals against average in the regular season<br />

and a 1.50 average in nine playoff games.<br />

Dugas said playing on a junior team close to<br />

home as a 16-year-old was a good transition to<br />

playing for the <strong>Frontenacs</strong> this year.<br />

“The main thing playing junior last year and<br />

getting sent down was getting adjusted to playing<br />

with older guys, playing 20 minute periods, having<br />

intermissions between every period, having the<br />

warmup before every game and coming back in the<br />

dressing room.<br />

“It’s a big difference from minor hockey as<br />

especially being a goalie I have a lot of things I have<br />

to do and there’s a whole new routine.”<br />

Dugas said his parents were in the stands in Erie<br />

to see his shutout.<br />

“My mom was crying, my dad was almost crying.”<br />

They were really proud of me and really happy.”<br />

“It was definitely something I’ll never forget.”<br />

BILLY KIMMERLY<br />

BALANCED SCORING<br />

<strong>Kingston</strong> has scored 11 goals through the first 5 games<br />

of the season. 5 of those goals have come off the stick<br />

of Jason Robertson. A total of 8 goals have been scored<br />

by the line of Robertson-Neumann-Derungs. While<br />

it’s great to have that line putting the puck in the net,<br />

the <strong>Frontenacs</strong> need other lines to be contributing to<br />

win hockey games. Players like Tyler Burnie and Matt<br />

Hotchkiss are expected to be big contributors this year<br />

and have yet to light the lamp. While the rookies are still<br />

finding their way in the league, Zayde Wisdom, Dennis<br />

Golovatchev, Kallaway Mercer and Jake Murray are<br />

other players that need to step up in order for <strong>Kingston</strong><br />

to have success.<br />

LIMIT SHOTS AGAINST<br />

In <strong>Kingston</strong>’s two wins so far this season they are<br />

averaging 28 shots against. In their 3 losses that<br />

number jumps to nearly 37 shots against. Based on<br />

league averages, even with Brendan Bonello playing<br />

well, an additional 9 shots against is usually equal to<br />

an extra goal against per game. With <strong>Kingston</strong> being<br />

a team that isn’t expected to score many goals,<br />

eliminating the oppositions opportunity to score is<br />

even more essential. The numbers already support<br />

the statement early in the season.<br />

POWER PLAY IMPROVEMENT<br />

With a roster made up of 10 new faces, it’s normal to<br />

see some growing pains during special teams play<br />

early in the season, but <strong>Kingston</strong> is experiencing<br />

worse than just growing pains on the power play<br />

so far this year. The <strong>Frontenacs</strong> have been on the<br />

man advantage 20 times this season, but have only<br />

cashed in once. It’s just a matter of time until the<br />

success rate starts to reach the league average, but<br />

in the meantime the power play simply has to be<br />

better than a 5% success rate.<br />

Jason Robertson wasn’t born in what is<br />

considered a “hockey hot bed”. Born on July<br />

22, 1999 in Arcadia, California, Robertson may<br />

have been expected to play baseball, or football,<br />

but he was naturally gifted at hockey and his<br />

family recognized that early on.<br />

Initially, they moved to Michigan to allow Jason<br />

to play at a higher level. In his OHL draft year,<br />

Jason joined the Don Mills Flyers of the GTMMHL<br />

which marked his first time playing for a Canadian<br />

based team. That move allowed scouts to see<br />

more of Jason, and the <strong>Frontenacs</strong> decided to<br />

the second round of the 2017 NHL Entry Draft.<br />

A year later they would sign him to his entry level<br />

contract.<br />

He came back to <strong>Kingston</strong> after being drafted<br />

and continued to do what he was doing the year<br />

before. He put up a career high 87 points and<br />

went over the 40 goal plateau for the second time<br />

in his career. In the playoffs he scored a career<br />

best 10 goals and tied his previous career best of<br />

18 points.<br />

Robertson is returning to <strong>Kingston</strong> this season<br />

as one of the veteran players and he has been<br />

spend their 4th round pick to select him in the<br />

2015 OHL Priority Selection.<br />

As a 16 year old, Robertson made the<br />

<strong>Frontenacs</strong> roster and contributed immediately.<br />

He scored 18 goals in his rookie season and<br />

people quickly started to see that he was a natural<br />

goal scorer. As a rookie, his ice-time in the playoffs<br />

was limited but he did record his first OHL playoff<br />

goal in the 4 games he played.<br />

The following season Robertson made a name<br />

for himself. He led the <strong>Frontenacs</strong> in scoring by 30<br />

points. He scored 42 goals finishing tied for 6th in<br />

the OHL. When playoff time rolled around, there<br />

was no question that he would be a key contributor<br />

for <strong>Kingston</strong> and he delivered. In just 11 games,<br />

Robertson put up 18 points which put him 13th in<br />

OHL scoring during the playoffs despite <strong>Kingston</strong><br />

being eliminated in the second round.<br />

The Dallas Stars were huge fans of what they<br />

saw out of Robertson and they selected him in<br />
