DEFUNCT

Michigan Panthers, amid financial struggles following the 1984 season, merged with the Oakland Invaders in 1985, where they would operate under the Invaders name.

A new version of this team returned in 2022 in the new incarnation of the league but with no links, except in name to this original team.
