Previously known as the Marquette Rangers, the Warriors played their home games at Perani Arena and Event Center.

[citation needed] In 2015, the Michigan Warriors suspended operations due to the arrival of the Flint Firebirds of the Ontario Hockey League.

Their inaugural season was 2006–07, in which they were able to make the playoffs but fell to the Mahoning Valley Phantoms in the first round.

In a battle for their respective first league titles, the Warriors dropped a 4–2 game to the Fairbanks Ice Dogs.

Knowing Flint could not support two junior teams at the same time, the Warriors looked for relocation alternatives.
