In spring 2014, the Maine Moose junior franchise was sold to Jeff Dupere and renamed the Maine Timberwolves as well as a relocation to Lewiston, Maine, to play in the Androscoggin Bank Colisée.

On September 17, the NSHL suspended the Timberwolves operations indefinitely for failure to meet financial obligations prior to ever playing a game.
