The team is based in [[Greater Sudbury|Sudbury]], [[Ontario]], [[Canada]]. The Sudbury Wolves have existed since 1962 in the [[Northern Ontario Junior Hockey League]], and 1972 in the OHL. ==History== Sudbury has had a hockey team known as the Wolves or Cub Wolves nearly every year since [[World War I]]. The Sudbury Cub Wolves team from the Northern Ontario Junior Hockey League won the [[George Richardson Memorial Trophy]] in 1932 and 1935, as Eastern Canadian champions. They won the [[Memorial Cup]] in [[1932]] and were runners-up in [[1935]]. This same team represented [[Canadian national men's hockey team|Team Canada]] at the 1938 and 1949 [[Ice Hockey World Championships|World Championships]], winning gold in 1938. [[Image:1938 sudbury wolves.jpg|thumb|left|230px|Sudbury Wolves, 1938]] The second incarnation of the Wolves was the 1962 entry into the [[Northern Ontario Junior Hockey League]]. The Wolves won the McNamara Trophy as NOJHL Champions in 1969 and 1971. The [[Ontario Hockey League|Ontario Hockey Association]] arrived in Sudbury in the fall of 1972 when the owners of the NOJHL's Sudbury Wolves bought the [[Niagara Falls Flyers]] franchise and merged the two teams. Sudbury Wolves fans are dedicated and have persevered through many tough years and northern winters to support their club, and the team frequently ranks near the top of the OHL in attendance. Sam McMaster was named [[OHL Executive of the Year]] in 1989–90 as the general manager, helping his team have its first winning season in 10 years. Sudbury celebrated their 35th anniversary in [[2006–07 OHL season|2006–07]], also reaching the OHL championship series the same year. ==Championships== [[Image:P2240012.jpg|thumb|right|230px|Sudbury Wolves make an entrance on home ice]] The current OHL Sudbury Wolves have never won the [[J. Ross Robertson Cup|OHL championship]], and have never participated in the [[Memorial Cup]]. Theirs is currently the third-longest [[List of CHL franchise post-season droughts|championship drought]] in the [[Canadian Hockey League]], and is now the longest in the OHL since the [[London Knights]] broke their 40-year drought in [[2005]]. In 1976, the Wolves finished first overall in the OHA with 102 points, winning the [[Hamilton Spectator Trophy]], and the [[Leyden Trophy]] for the Leyden Division. That year Sudbury reached the OHA finals, losing to the eventual Memorial Cup champion [[Hamilton Fincups]] in 5 games. The Wolves returned to the OHL finals 31 seasons later in 2006–07. The Wolves also won was the 2000–2001 [[Emms Trophy]] for the regular season Central Division title. <table cellpadding=10><tr><td valign=top> '''[[J.

The home jerseys featured white background with green and gold trim. The away jerseys had a green background with white and gold trim. Since the 1987–88 season, the Sudbury Wolves' colours have been blue, white and silver, with the current logo at the top of the article. The home jerseys have a white background with blue and silver trim. The away jerseys have a blue background with white and silver trim. The Sudbury Wolves have also had special logo designed and worn as patches on the jersey for their 25th and 30th anniversaries. Sudbury wore a black third jersey briefly in the mid 1990's. The current third jersey was first worn October 13, 2006. The jersey has a silver background, with blue and white trim, and the name "Sudbury" on the front diagonally from upper left to lower right. ==Arena== The Sudbury Wolves play their home games at the [[Sudbury Community Arena]], which was constructed in [[1951]] and is located in the downtown core. The arena holds 5,743 spectators - 4,743 seats and 1,000 standing room, and has an ice size of 200' x 85'. Every time the Wolves score a goal, a [[Taxidermy|taxidermic]] wolf rolls out on a pulley system to howl at the opposing team's bench. The City of Greater Sudbury and the hockey club have recently upgraded the facility. The 1.5 million dollar expansion includes 12 new suites, 990 club seats, a new lounge as well as improved lounge and washroom faciltities. It is now ready for the 2007–2008 hockey season. ==See also== *[[List of ice hockey teams in Ontario]] ==External links== *[http://www.sudburywolves.com www.sudburywolves.com] Official web site *[http://www.ontariohockeyleague.com/ Ontario Hockey League] Official web site *[http://www.chl.ca/ Canadian Hockey League] Official web site *[http://www.sudburymuseums.ca/index.cfm?app=w_vmuseum&lang=en&currID=1606&parID=1594 www.sudburymuseums.ca] History of hockey in Sudbury *[http://www.ohlarenaguide.com/wolves.htm Sudbury Community Arena] The OHL Arena & Travel Guide *[http://www.northernlife.ca/News/SudburyWolves/ www.northernlife.ca] Sudbury Wolves new coverage *[http://www.gowolvesgo.com www.gowolvesgo.com] Sudbury Wolves fan site {{OHL}} {{Ontario Sports}} [[Category:Ontario Hockey League teams]] [[Category:Sport in Greater Sudbury]] [[Category:Sports clubs established in 1972]] [[de:Sudbury Wolves]] [[fr:Wolves de Sudbury]] [[pl:Sudbury Wolves]]
