The Cincinnati Mighty Ducks have been granted a voluntary suspension for the 2005-06 season due to the lack of an NHL affiliate after previous affiliates Detroit Red Wings and the Mighty Ducks of Anaheim signed new agreements with the Grand Rapids Griffins and the Portland Pirates, respectively. In October 2005 the team was renamed the Cincinnati RailRaiders. They were seeking an affiliation agreement for a return in 2006-07, but failed to reach a goal of 2,000 season tickets sold to become re-active.

On October 3, 2006, it was reported that Ice Track Corporation, a company based out of Windsor, Ontario, had purchased the team, and is planning to move it to a new arena in that city in time for the 2008-09 season. [1]

The franchise was previously known as: Baltimore Bandits (1995-1997)
The market was previously served by: Cincinnati Cyclones of the ECHL and IHL (1990-2004)
Franchise replaced by: Cincinnati Cyclones of the ECHL (2006- )
The franchise will be known as : Windsor (to be named) (2008- )
