The Kingston Frontenacs officially secured a spot in the 2026 Ontario Hockey League playoffs on March 4, 2026. This achievement means local hockey fans in Kingston, Ontario, can now look forward to watching the team compete in postseason games at the Slush Puppie Place.

The team’s spot was confirmed after the Barrie Colts won their game against the Brampton Steelheads. This result made it impossible for the Steelheads to catch up to Kingston in the standings, as they were trailing the Frontenacs by about 20 points heading into the final stretch of the season.

Now that they have qualified, the Frontenacs will focus on their final games to earn the best possible ranking in the Eastern Conference. A higher ranking would allow the team to host more games at home during the first round of the playoffs. Fans can expect to see more information regarding ticket sales and game dates once the final rankings are decided.
