I think that it’s pretty clear that the Newfoundland Berserkers are the Maine Timber’s current rival. Our recent history means that there will be a lot of bad blood between the two organizations. The most significant altercation were in the play-offs within the last two seasons. The first and really the most significant of which when it comes to their rivalry was two seasons ago. Against all expectations, Maine went on a real good run. They knocked out teams that were perceived to be much better then them. They did this all the way to the finals when they encountered the Newfoundland Berserkers. The series wasn’t lopsided at all, with Maine giving a good showing night in and night out but it ultimately ended in the Timbers defeat. The fact that it was such a good series means that the rivialry was that much more intense. Since then, the games between the two teams have been intense and continue to be so to this season.
