The Oshawa Firewolves enter the 2026-27 National Lacrosse League season with a dramatically different roster and one major question: When will Jeff Teat be ready to play? Oshawa selected Teat first overall in the dispersal draft, but the forward is recovering from an injury, and his return date remains uncertain.
After finishing 6-12 and 13th last season, coach Glenn Clark also acquired defender Holden Garlent from Saskatchewan. The FireWolves have invited 38 players to training camp, including 17 newcomers.

How Did The Oshawa FireWolves Finish The 2025-26 NLL Season?
Oshawa finished 6-12 in 2025-26, placing 13th in the 14-team NLL standings and missing the playoffs.
The FireWolves matched the records of Calgary and Rochester, but both teams finished ahead of Oshawa in the final standings.
The disappointing finish created a clear challenge for Clark entering 2026-27. Rather than returning with the same personnel, Oshawa acquired Teat in the dispersal draft and traded for Garlent. Those additions could change the team's outlook, although Teat's injury complicates the timetable for putting its new roster together.
Who Is The Oshawa FireWolves Head Coach In 2026-27?
Glenn Clark is the Oshawa FireWolves' head coach and general manager for the 2026-27 NLL season.
Clark will oversee a 38-player training camp scheduled to begin Oct. 31 at Tribute Communities Centre. The group includes 21 returning players and 17 newcomers, giving the coaching staff plenty of personnel decisions to make before the regular season.
What Are 3 Oshawa FireWolves Roster Storylines To Watch In 2026-27?
1. Jeff Teat Arrives As Oshawa's Biggest Offseason Addition
The FireWolves made their biggest move of the offseason by selecting Jeff Teat first overall in the NLL dispersal draft.
Teat's arrival gives Oshawa an important offensive addition as the organization looks to improve on last season's six victories.
However, there is a significant question surrounding his availability. The FireWolves have acknowledged that Teat is recovering from an injury, and no specific return date has been confirmed.
His eventual debut will be one of the biggest developments for Oshawa fans to follow during the season.
2. Holden Garlent Joins Oshawa In A Major Trade With Saskatchewan
Oshawa acquired experienced defender Holden Garlent from the Saskatchewan Rush in a trade that reshaped both teams' rosters.
The FireWolves sent Connor Kearnan, Jaxon Fridge and the No. 20 selection in the 2026 NLL entry draft to Saskatchewan in exchange for Garlent.
The move gives Clark another established defensive option while requiring Oshawa to adjust following the departure of two players and a draft pick.
How Garlent fits into the defensive group will be an important storyline as the FireWolves attempt to improve on their 2025-26 finish.
3. Alex Simmons And Doug Jamieson Lead A Returning Group Facing New Competition
Oshawa's training camp includes established players Alex Simmons and goaltender Doug Jamieson, who return as the organization evaluates a substantial group of newcomers.
Of the 38 players invited to camp, 21 are returning players and 17 are new additions.
That mix creates competition for roster positions and gives Clark an opportunity to evaluate different combinations.
The FireWolves must integrate their acquisitions without assuming every camp invitee will earn a regular-season spot. Establishing the final roster will be an important part of Oshawa's preseason preparations.
