After an eighth place and elimination in the quarter-finals of the play-offs for the Coupe Futura in its debut season, the team reached the play-off semi-finals in the 2009/10 season, in which it was eliminated against the eventual champions CRS Express de Saint-Georges . Before the season started, the Saguenay club had changed its name to Marquis de Saguenay. Three years later, the team changed its name again and renamed itself to Marquis de Jonquière after the district in which the team is based.
