Fort Erie Jr. B Meteors Hockey Club

FORT ERIE METEORS - THE HISTORY

The Fort Erie Junior B Hockey Club has been a proud member of the Ontario Hockey Association since its' inception in 1957.

The Meteors organization has gone through many changes over the years from being red and white to the present day colours of black, orange and white but one thing has remained constant is the commitment to developing players for the next level of competition.

The organization is run by a group of dedicated volunteers who have been with the team for several years. It is their commitment and guidance that has led to nearly 100 players being placed into the OHL or University ranks.

There have been many Meteor players throughout the years that have gone on to achieve great success in the hockey ranks. The NHL has seen its' share of Meteors including Tom Reid, Lynn Zimmerman, Mike Lalor, Randy Burridge and Stan Drulia. While the Minor League players Jarrod Skalde, Don Margettie, Mike Tobin, Kevin McKinnon, Matt Desroisers along with several others, you can see the fine tradition the club has built.
Recently, the upward movement continued with James Kalec going the college route, and Kyle Jukosky and Ryan Ramage being drafted by the OHL. These young men join Ryan Berard, Derek Lyons, Tim Songin, Jayson Barnhardt, Ryan Bellows and Justin Corio who have gone to the OHL or to University.
