As a newbie to the SHL, it is hard for me to say who Anchorage’s biggest rival is. Geographically it looks to be the Yukon Malamutes, as they are the team closest to us Alaskan boys. Currently we are also division rivals, meaning competition is extra fierce between our teams as we fight for playoff positioning. Another strong argument could be made for the Newfoundland Berserkers, who eliminated the Armada from the playoffs three seasons in a row, from S60-S62. In S60 and S62, those series losses occurred in the Four Star Cup Final. Losing such important series 3 years running must have led to some bad blood between the two teams. As an individual, I consider Kelowna a rival as they opted to take Jacques Hammer as the first non-recreate off the board. I consider it my mission to prove that Sean Davies should have gone in that spot as the #1 Newbie.
