Established in the 2005 season following the relocation of the St. John's Maple Leafs, the Marlies have played their home games at Coca-Cola Coliseum since their inaugural campaign.
Since their inception, the Marlies have been one of the AHL’s most competitive teams, consistently qualifying for the playoffs and earning multiple division titles. They reached the Calder Cup Finals in 2012, and captured their first Calder Cup championship in 2018 by defeating the Texas Stars in a seven-game series, and in 2026 against the Chicago Wolves.
In their inaugural season under the new name, the Marlies competed in the North Division, in the Western Conference, and established a foundation for future success.
