TFA blurb review
Any thoughts or edits? (I'm posting this one early because I'll be tied up with another project for almost a month starting on the 13th. I don't know when this will be promoted at FAC.) - Dank (push to talk) 22:01, 6 March 2019 (UTC)

The Kenora Thistles were an ice hockey team founded in 1894 in Kenora, Ontario, Canada. The team competed for Canada's Stanley Cup five times between 1903 and 1907, winning it in January 1907 and defending it once before losing it that March in a challenge series. Nine Thistles players—four of them homegrown—have been inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame, and the Stanley Cup champion team was inducted into the Northwestern Ontario Sports Hall of Fame. The Thistles competed in Manitoba-based leagues throughout their existence, owing to the city's proximity to that province. They joined the Manitoba Hockey Association in 1902, winning the league championship in three of their six seasons. After an economic downturn in 1907, they were unable to sustain their success as professionalism came to ice hockey, and the team disbanded in 1908. The name "Thistles" has been used since then for senior, minor, and junior Kenora teams.
