The Hamilton Steelhawks have to be our biggest rivals, as evidenced by how we hold our breath before regular season matches against them. Always a tough matchup that somehow seem to have the perfect counter to whatever strats we are rolling, there isn’t a more frustrating matchup in the league. In recent playoffs, they have knocked us out so often in the first or second round that it practically seems to be a seasonal occurrence. How many times must we sigh in disappointment and say “we’ll get em next year”? There certainly is resentment, a major grudge, building in our locker room, and if we run into them in the playoffs again, the hard feelings we have been harboring might boil over into some chippy, anger-fueled hockey. We really need to get a win against them in the playoffs to take the edge off the hatred that burns in our chest every time the Steelhawks are mentioned. After all the work we have put in during the offseason, constantly growing as a team, I know we can beat them, it just needs to actually happen now.
