Off-season trades will bring a few players against their former teams for the first time. Defensive end Hector Dinardo and lineman Jeff Tomonson will both face their former Arkham teamates, while nose tackle Sean Smith and center Deon White will be looking for revenge as former Moose players.

The overall advantage is to Arkham, but the Grave Robbers are barely ahead at many positions, while the Moose overwhelm at linebacker, quarterback and halfback. This looks to be a high-scoring game, and one that should be a treat for fans of both teams.
