City Onaping Falls, Ontario League Northern Ontario Junior Hockey League Operated 1974-1986 Home arena Jim Coady Arena Colors Blue, Red, and White The Onaping Falls Huskies were a Junior "A" ice hockey team from Onaping Falls, Ontario, Canada. This defunct hockey team was a part of the Northern Ontario Junior Hockey League.
History
Founded in 1974 as a member of the NOHA Jr. B league. Only playing in the NOJHL from 1978 until 1986, the Onaping Falls Huskies were a very successful team, winning 4 league titles in their 7 seasons. They won the McNamara Cup in 1980, 1981, 1982, and 1986. At the national level, they were never able to defeat the champions of the Ontario Provincial Junior A Hockey League, however, and therefore never advanced to compete for the Dudley Hewitt Cup.
In 1980, the Huskies were swept by the North York Rangers 3-games-to-none. In 1981, they were swept by the Belleville Bulls 3-games-to-none. And in 1982, the Huskies were swept by the Guelph Platers 3-games-to-none. Both Belleville and Guelph were granted expansion into the Ontario Hockey League soon after these playoff runs. In 1986, the Huskies faced the dominant Orillia Travelways and lost 4-games-to-2.
