Kildonan North Stars


The Kildonan North Stars were a Canadian Junior ice hockey Team in the Manitoba Junior Hockey League from Winnipeg, Manitoba.

History

During the summer of 1967, community-minded sports group purchased the Winnipeg Warriors from Ben Hatskin, renaming them the West Kildonan North Stars. The team was located in Northwest Winnipeg.
In 1967-68 Centre Wayne Chernecki led the MJHL in both points and goals, and was also voted Rookie of the Year, and earned First Team All-Star honors.
For the 1976-77 season the Team’s name was shorted to the Kildonan North Stars.
In 1978, the Kildonan North Stars captured the Turnbull Cup as Manitoba Junior "A" Hockey Champions.
During the 1986-87 season, the North Stars became infamous for a completely winless 48-game season. During the stretch from the beginning of the 1985-86 season to the end of the 1986-87 season, the North Stars had 6 wins, 90 losses, and no ties. Over the two Seasons the Kildonan North Stars would set a record for the all time losing streak, 64 games without a point, passing the Regina Silver Foxes record of 58 losses from their 1975 season. Three years later the team was dissolved despite two consecutive winning seasons.
