On April 16, 2018, the Blackburn Inferno would be sold and moved to Carp, Ontario and named the West Carleton Inferno. They would announce their home arena to be the W. Erskine Johnston Arena in Carp, Ontario.

On August 27, 2021, the West Carleton Inferno announced on social media that they were relocating to Almonte, Ontario. On August 30, they unveiled their new name, the Almonte Inferno. [2]
