Kingston Frontenacs Career Records

The Kingston Frontenacs began life in the Ontario Hockey League as the Kingston Canadians for the 1973-74 season. They remained the Canadians until the end of the 1987-88 season. For one season, 1988-89, they were known as the Raiders and have been nicknamed the Frontenacs ever since.

The Kingston franchise’s record for most goals by a player in a career is, to this day, held by a player that began his Junior-A career in 1973-74 and is an original Kingston Canadian. Mike Crombeen scored 160 goals over 244 games with the Canadians.

Mike Crombeen’s best season with the Canadians came in 1974-75 when he notched 56 goals and added 58 assists for 114 points. He was taken fifth overall in the 1977 NHL Entry Draft by the Cleveland Barons. Crombeen was also taken fourth overall in the 1977 WHA Draft by the Edmonton Oilers. He chose the NHL. In hindsight, it might have been a better choice to go with the Oilers.

Crombeen played a total of 475 regular season games in the NHL with Cleveland, St. Louis and Hartford, contributing 123 points. He played an additional 27 Stanley Cup playoff games with St. Louis.

Holding Kingston’s record for most career assists and most career points is Keli Corpse with 285 and 420 over 265 games. Corpse played with the Frontenacs from 1990 to 1995. Keli was picked by the Montreal Canadiens in the second round of the 1992 NHL Entry Draft, 44th overall but never played an NHL game. He did have a fairly long career in professional hockey, playing in the AHL, IHL, ECHL, UHL as well as playing in Italy and Germany.

Leading the all-time list for Kingston players with the most career penalty minutes is Marc Moro. Moro sat out 694 minutes in penalties over 210 games between 1993 and 1997. Moro was selected by the Ottawa Senators in the second round of the 1995 NHL Entry Draft, 27th overall. Marc went on to play 30 games in the NHL over his professional hockey career, appearing with the Anaheim Ducks, Nashville Predators and the Toronto Maple Leafs.
