The Kenora Muskies were a Canadian Junior "A" ice hockey team from Kenora, Ontario. They were members of the Manitoba Junior Hockey League (MJHL).

In the fall of 1967, Kenora along with the Selkirk Steelers, Portage Terriers, and Dauphin Kings started the Central Manitoba Junior Hockey League. Kenora operated out of Fort Garry, Manitoba for the 67-68 season and were called the Frontiermen. The very next year, the CMJHL merged with the MJHL.

In the summer of 75, the team were renamed the Kenora Thistles, in honor of the 1907 Stanley Cup winning team.

For continuation of this franchise see Kenora Thistles (MJHL).
