==== Rivalries ====

=== Narva Neptunes ===

The Kodiaks have a strong rivalry against the Neptunes, who originally began in Kirlow. Both teams moved to their current homes in 1965. The teams have found themselves pitted against each other in the Hatch Division which has only strengthened their dislike.

=== Rockets, Pioneers, Whales ===

The Kodiaks have a good rivalry with their neighboring regional teams in Galapetra with the Fort Bevin Rockets, Portarra Pioneers, and Portarra Whales. The Rockets beat the Kodiaks for the 1979 Marcotte Cup which helped spur along their natural dislike. In Portarra, the Kodiaks have a stronger rivalry with the Whales than the Pioneers.
