Napanee Raiders The Napanee Raiders are a Canadian Junior ice hockey team based in Napanee , Ontario , Canada . They play in the Empire B Junior C Hockey League of the Ontario Hockey Association . History . The current Napanee junior hockey team found its genesis in the 1960s as a member of the Quinte - St . Lawrence Junior C Hockey league . Originally known as the Napanee Kelly Tiremen , the team would make several appearances in the Clarence Schmalz Cup playoffs advancing to the cup final in 1963 , semi - finals in 1966 and 1967 and the quarter - finals in 1968 . In 1980 they changed their name to the Napanee Warriors . The league was floundering and in 1986 merged with the more western Central Ontario Junior C Hockey League . The merger left the Napanee Warriors without a local league and forced them to go on hiatus . The Raiders Era . After three seasons with no junior hockey , the Eastern Ontario Junior C Hockey League was formed . The Napanee Raiders were its first regular season and playoff champions in 1990 . In 1993 , the Napanee Raiders forced the Ontario Hockey Association to take the far - east upstart league seriously . The Raiders finished first in the regular season with thirty - two wins in thirty - five games played . They won the league playoffs and entered the Clarence Schmalz Cup provincial playdowns . They made it to the provincial final where they faced the Western Ontario Junior C Hockey League ' s , Hanover Barons for Ontario ' s crown . The Raiders shocked the Barons and came out on top with 4 - games - to - 2 series win . This marked both the Raiders and the new league ' s first provincial championship . The Raiders won the Eastern Ontario Junior C League title again in 1994 and 1995 . After the 1995 championship , the league announced that they were changing their name from the Eastern Ontario Junior C Hockey League to the Empire B Junior C Hockey League . The name change was to end confusion between the league and the neighbouring Ottawa District Hockey Association ' s long running Eastern Ontario Junior C Hockey League . In 1995 - 96 , the Napanee Raiders won their fourth straight league championship . Unlike the previous two years , the Raiders made it through to the Clarence Schmalz Cup final . Their opponents were the Paris Mounties of the Niagara & District Junior C Hockey League . However unlike the 1993 finals , the Raider ' s fell short of their bid for a second provincial crown , losing in the championship series , 4 - games - to - 1 . The 2000 - 01 season ended up being a good one for the Raiders as they went on to win their sixth league championship . In 2005 - 06 , the Raiders finished the regular season in first place overall . They received a bye through the league quarter - finals and ended up against the second year Colborne Cobras in the league semi - final . The Raiders proved too much for the Cobras and crushed them 4 - games - to - none . In the league final , the Raiders met up with the Amherstview Jets . In a long and tough series , the Raiders prevailed in game 7 , winning the series 4 - games - to - 3 . In the provincial semi - final , the Raiders ran into the Central Ontario Junior C Hockey League ' s Port Perry Mojacks . The Mojacks swept the Empire B champions 4 - games - to - none . The 2006 - 07 season saw the Napanee Raiders slip to third place overall in the regular season standings . The Raiders met the Amherstview Jets in the league semi - final . The Jets were set on avenging the 2006 Finals loss to the Raiders and defeated them 4 - games - to - 2 to move on to the league final . During the 2006 - 07 season , the Raiders invited the local Canada World Youth branch along with a large contingent of Peruvians from " La Brigada de Voluntarios Bolivarianos del Peru " to attend the game . The Raiders defeated the Picton Pirates 6 - 3 in front of their guests . The Raiders finished the 2008 - 09 season with a 20 - 0 home record .
