The Kenora Thistles were an early amateur men’s ice hockey team based in Kenora Ontario Canada formed in 1885 as a senior team by a group of Lake of the Woods lumbermen. The club is notable for winning the Stanley Cup as an amateur team in 1907. The town is the smallest in population to have ever won the Cup. The junior team started play in amateur leagues in the 1890s and ceased playing in 1907 playing against Manitoba and Northwestern Ontario based teams.
