# Carleton Place Canadians

The Carleton Place Canadians are a Junior ''A'' ice hockey team based in Carleton Place, Ontario. The Canadians compete in the Central Canada Hockey League (CCHL) as a member of the West Division. The team was established in 1970, and have played their home games at the Carleton Place Arena since 1996. The Canadians are owned by Brent Sullivan.

## History

The Carleton Place Kings began play in 1969 in the Renfrew-Lanark Junior C Hockey League. Soon after, the league folded and the Kings ended up in the Rideau-St. Lawrence Junior B Hockey League in 1971. This league later became the Eastern Ontario Junior Hockey League. In 2009 it was announced that the team had been granted expansion to the Central Canada Hockey League. Although the CCHL franchise has a different name, the Legion Kings are still considered the forerunner to the Canadians franchise.
The Canadians played their first Junior ''A'' game on September 11, 2009. At home, the Canadians dropped a 4-1 decision to the Nepean Raiders. On September 13, 2009, the Canadians won their first ever CJHL game, defeating the Ottawa Jr. Senators 3–2 in a shootout on the road.
The 2013–14 season was a landmark season for the Canadians. They shattered both the CCHL's wins and points records en route to their first regular season title, falling one win short of shattering the 1972-73 Pembroke Lumber Kings league record for best winning percentage (47-4-4). They won CCHL playoffs by beating the Kemptville 73s 4–0 and then beating Pembroke in a hard-fought 7-game series. In the final, they won their first CCHL Art Bogart Cup against their division rival smith falls bears in 5 games in 2OT. They went on to win against the St Jerome Panthers 3–1 to win their 1st Fred Page Cup. The Canadiens lost in RBC Cup final in a 2ot loss to the Yorkton Terriers.
