After entering the season with plenty of expectations, Gavin Betts quickly proved he was ready for the spotlight. The 17-year-old netminder emerged as one of the club\u2019s biggest bright spots during the 2025-26 campaign, establishing himself as a key piece of the organization\u2019s future.<\/span><\/p>\n

Betts stepped into a much larger role this season following significant changes to Kingston\u2019s crease with veteran netminders Charlie Schenkel and Mason Vaccari leaving the organization and he never looked out of place. Calm under pressure and confident in the crease, the Toronto native delivered several standout performances throughout the year, including his first OHL shutout and multiple Goalie of the Week honours at the league level.<\/span><\/p>\n

The former second-round OHL Priority Selection pick showcased his athleticism and poise night after night, helping keep the Frontenacs competitive during a season focused heavily on youth development. Betts finished the year with 21 wins and a team-best 2.81 GAA among Kingston goaltenders, continuing to build momentum as one of the top young goaltenders in the league.<\/span><\/p>\n

His emergence was about more than statistics. Betts consistently gave the Frontenacs a chance to win, earning praise for his maturity and composure despite his age. Whether it was shutting the door in tight games or standing tall during high-pressure moments, he showed the qualities of a future franchise goaltender.<\/span><\/p>\n

As the Frontenacs continue building toward the future, Gavin Betts has made one thing clear; the crease in Kingston is in very good hands.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

With just 17 days left until the 2026 OHL priority selection kicks off at Slush Puppie place, we turn our attention to the 17th overall pick in the 2025 OHL draft, Matthew Henderson, who stepped in and became a difference maker right away for the Frontenacs.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

With the second of his two first-round picks, Kory Cooper and his staff selected Matthew Henderson from the Huron-Perth Lakers U16 AAA program. A smooth-skating left-handed defenceman who recorded 26 points in 30 games in his final season of minor hockey.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

From the start of development camp following the draft, there was no doubt Henderson would not only fit well into Coach Troy Mann\u2019s system but also become a star very quickly in the OHL.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Henderson played 63 games with the Frontenacs in his rookie season, recording 18 points, including the first two goals of his junior hockey career. After moving up and down the lineup for the first handful of regular-season games, Henderson found a home playing with overage defenceman and Memorial Cup Champion in Will Bishop.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThe experience is a big thing,\u201d <\/span><\/strong><\/em>said Henderson in an Interview with the Frontenacs. <\/span><\/strong>\u201cThat\u2019s the goal for everyone, so having him teach us about that journey? It\u2019s special.\u201d<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The savvy veteran, paired with an up-and-coming star, not only worked well for Henderson and Bishop, but the Frontenacs staff loved what they were seeing too.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cBish being able to guide Hendo along the way here as he gets started in his OHL career is really going to benefit him as he moves forward,\u201d <\/span><\/strong><\/em>said General Manager Kory Cooper in a mid-season conversation.<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Along with his teammate Aleks Kulemin, Henderson had the honour of representing Team Canada White at the U17 World Championships in Truro, Nova Scotia. Again, Henderson made waves, recording six points in five games on his way to a silver medal wearing the maple leaf.<\/span><\/p>\n

When Henderson returned from the U17s, he was given a bigger role on the Frontenacs, being added to the second power-play unit and seeing the ice in more high-pressure situations as Kingston made their playoff push. All accumulating to Henderson being relied on heavily in the Frontenacs first round series against the Ottawa 67\u2019s this past April.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s a big boost of confidence,\u201d <\/span><\/strong><\/em>said Henderson. <\/span><\/strong>\u201cPlaying against the top lines in the OHL as a 16-year-old does a lot for your self-confidence.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Henderson will come into camp next fall as one of the Frontenacs’ most promising defencemen and once again will be relied on heavily for his ability to break out the puck efficiently and create offence at the other end.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

After arriving in Kingston midway through the 2025-26 campaign, Slovakian forward Alex Misiak quickly became an important piece of the young and evolving Kingston Frontenacs lineup. Acquired from the Erie Otters in January, Misiak brought a combination of skill, physicality, and international experience that helped strengthen the Frontenacs down the stretch.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The 18-year-old forward adapted quickly after the move, providing offensive production and versatility in a variety of situations. Misiak finished among Kingston\u2019s team leaders in assists and power play scoring, while also bringing a competitive edge every night. His ability to play with pace and create opportunities around the offensive zone helped him fit seamlessly into the Frontenacs\u2019 forward group.<\/span><\/p>\n

His playoff experience, combined with his appearance for Slovakia at the 2026 IIHF World Junior Championship earlier in the season, added valuable maturity to Kingston\u2019s young roster.<\/span><\/p>\n

Still eligible to return next season, Misiak\u2019s strong finish with the Frontenacs provided an exciting glimpse of what\u2019s ahead.

With just a few weeks left until the 2026 OHL Priority Selection, Andr\u00e9 Mondoux is an example of how it\u2019s not just the first round picks that become stars in the league.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The product of Sturgeon Falls, Ontario, was relatively unknown heading into his draft year, playing for the North Bay Trappers program before joining the Toronto Titans in his U16 season. Despite a lack of production as a stay-at-home defenseman, Mondoux caught the eyes of the Frontenacs scouting staff with his size and skating ability. 204 names were called before the Frontenacs selected Andr\u00e9 Mondoux in the 11th round of the 2023 OHL Priority Selection.<\/span><\/p>\n

Mondoux spent the majority of his first two junior hockey seasons with the Pickering Panthers in the Ontario Junior Hockey League (OJHL). Suiting up in 103 games for the Panthers, Mondoux would record nine goals and 27 points in his time, all while continuing to sharpen his defensive skills. Mondoux made his Frontenacs debut on December 20, 2024 and suited up seven more times during the 2024-25 campaign.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

After impressing in limited action with the Frontenacs, Mondoux was invited to the Philadelphia Flyers Rookie camp in September, where he gained valuable experience that he brought back to Kingston for his first full season.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Starting the season as an 18-year old, Mondoux was heavily relied on throughout his first season by Head Coach Troy Mann. Playing in 66 regular season games and all four playoff games. Mondoux not only saw a heavy workload five-on-five, but was also used frequently on the penalty kill throughout the year. The defencemen also showed flashes of offence, dangling his way through opposing teams multiple times, and scoring six times, two of which were game-winning goals.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cJust being able to gain the coach’s trust was a big thing for me,\u201d <\/span><\/strong><\/em>said Mondoux in his exit interview this season.<\/span><\/strong> \u201c My goal was to be a top-six guy, I ended up being a guy they trusted on the penalty kill and in big minutes.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The 2026-27 season shapes up to be a big one for Frontenacs defencemen. Mondoux has the attention of NHL scouts and is hopeful to hear his name called in Buffalo at the 2026 NHL Draft. In his exit interview, Troy Mann spoke of Andre Mondoux as a player who could take on a leadership role when the team returns in the fall.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

While he might not be a household name in Kingston yet, Ty Robar is a great example of how deep the Kingston Frontenacs 2025 draft class really is. With 28 days until the 2026 OHL Priority Selection kicks off in Kingston, we look at how number 28 for the Frontenacs could be a name to remember for this season and beyond.<\/span><\/p>\n

Robar, who was the 118th overall selection in last year’s draft, spent his minor hockey days playing for the Toronto Titans AAA program. In his U16 year, the right-handed forward scored 77 points in 74 games, which was in the top five on his team. Robar added 5 points in 6 games to his totals at the OHL Cup before the draft.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

With older players away at NHL camps, Robar laced them up for the Frontenacs when they took to the ice for the first time during the 2025-26 season. In the team’s home opener against the Ottawa 67\u2019s, Robar would score his first OHL goal and the Fronts’ first goal of the season. The 16-year-old would end up playing 10 games for Kingston throughout the season, with his most efficient appearance being on December 20th, when Robar scored twice against the Brampton Steelheads on the road.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI am very grateful for my first season with the Frontenacs,\u201d<\/em> said Robar in a message to the Frontenacs. \u201cBeing around the team, coaches and organization was a great experience, and it really helped me grow both on and off the ice.”<\/em><\/span><\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Robar would spend the majority of the season with the Pickering Panthers of the Ontario Junior Hockey League (OJHL), suiting up 37 times for the cats in the regular season. Recording an efficient 26 points, the young Frontenacs prospect was put in key situations for the Cats, playing in 14 playoff games this past spring.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Robar will come into Kingston training camp next fall with a chance to be a full-time member of the Frontenacs in the 2026-27 season. His experience with the team this season should help him develop into a key piece of a young Frontenacs core looking to make an impact on the league.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cMy focus in the off-season is getting bigger, stronger, faster and more prepared for camp this fall,\u201d<\/em> Robar continued in his message. \u201c I am counting down the days, and I am ready to earn every opportunity that comes my way.\u201d\u00a0<\/em><\/span><\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Don\u2019t miss your chance to see the next generation of Frontenacs hear their name called at the 2026 OHL Priority Selection, returning to an in-person format live in Kingston at Slush Puppie Place on June 12-13. Tickets are\u00a0available here.<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n
