Photos: A First Look at the Cincinnati Cyclones’ 2024-25 Season

The Cincinnati Cyclones will be back for their first game on the ice this season at the Heritage Bank Center on Saturday, facing off against the Indy Fuel.

Last season, the Cincinnati Cyclones finished second in the ECHL’s Central Division and advanced to the Kelly Cup playoffs, where they made it through the first round before falling in a close-fought series. The Cyclones will continue their competitive drive in the ECHL in their 2024-25 season, led for the sixth time by veteran player Justin Vaive as the team captain. This will be the first year that the Cincinnati Cyclones are affiliated with the Toronto Maple Leafs, who are currently fifth in the NHL’s Atlantic Division.

Apart from exciting competition, fans can also look forward to a full calendar of fan-favorite promotions at Cyclones games, like themed game nights, giveaways and community events. With a passionate fan base and a dedicated team, the Cyclones are ready to make this season one of their best yet.

For just a taste of what to expect during the Cyclones’ 2024-25 season, CityBeat attended the team’s media day preview on Tuesday. Keep scrolling to see all of the fun we had the Cincinnati Cyclones’ media preview event.
