It took a second overtime frame, but the Wolverines eventually lost to the Sockeyes by a score of 6–5.

The Wolverines finished fourth in the league, but lost the league quarter-final to an underdog Fort Frances Lakers.

On June 7, 2010, the Wolverines unceremoniously and without stated reason left the SIJHL. For owner Bill MacLaurin, this was the third time he had dropped ownership of a team in the SIJHL (first was the Featherman Hawks and second was the Schreiber Diesels). This was after a second season was announced by the club, that the team would be moving to the Fort William First Nation Arena, and tryout dates were given.
