NAHL Anchorage Wolverines

Game Day: Wolverines Take on Brown Bears in the Club 49 Cup Action

April 7, 2023 - North American Hockey League (NAHL)
Anchorage Wolverines News Release


The Anchorage Wolverines remain on the outside of the playoff picture but still control their own destiny with four games left in the regular season. Anchorage plays the Kenai River Brown Bears in four straight games to end the year, twice this upcoming weekend at the Ben, and twice at the Soldotna Regional Sports Complex the following weekend.

Anchorage has a chance to win the Club 49 cup tonight as they sit eight points ahead of Kenai River in the standings. Thanks to the split between the Brown Bears and Ice Dogs last weekend, the Wolverines need just one win in their reaming four games to secure hockey supremacy in the battle between all three Alaskan NAHL teams against one another.

The road to the playoffs will not be easy for the Wolverines. Currently they are four points behind Kenai River, who is the only team that they could pass to secure a playoff spot. This means they must pick up a minimum of seven points against the Brown Bears in the next four games, while allowing Kenai River no more than two, due to the first tiebreaker for playoff entry being games won in the regular season. The Brown Bears currently boast 30 wins to Anchorage's 26.
