Barrie Colts Hockey Club Fined $15,000
Published on May 6, 2026 under Ontario Hockey League (OHL) News Release
TORONTO - The Ontario Hockey League (OHL) today announced that it has issued a $15,000 fine to the Barrie Colts Hockey Club for conduct detrimental to the public perception of the League.
The disciplinary action is a result of post-game remarks made by Colts Head Coach Dylan Smoskowitz following Game 7 of the Eastern Conference Championship Series, played in Brantford on Monday.
The OHL holds its member teams and their personnel to the highest standards of professional conduct. The post-game comments in question were determined to be highly unprofessional and represented a disservice to the dedicated media members who provide coverage of the Ontario Hockey League.
The League will have no additional comment on the matter.
