The Carleton Place Canadians are a junior ice hockey club and franchise of the Central Canada Hockey League (CCHL) based in Carleton Place, Ontario. The team plays its home games at the Carleton Place arena, which opened in 1969.[1]

History

The original Carleton Place Legion Kings logo

The team was founded in 1969 as the Carleton Place Legion Kings in the Renfrew-Lanark Junior C Hockey League. Soon after, the league folded and the Legion 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 Junior A Hockey League (now Central Canada Hockey League). Although the CCHL franchise has a different name, the Legion Kings are still considered the forerunner to the Canadians franchise.[2] The club was sold to Jason and Jody Clarke in 2006.[3]
