The pair banded together and joined forces, and that's when "The Alliance" was born.
"We are the most dominant players, and everyone started coming after us," explained Gallagher, on the primary reason behind the partnership. "Naturally, we formed what we called "The Alliance" and we've been inseparable and unbeatable ever since."
While Gallagher and Lehkonen still have their fair share of two-touch "enemies" so to speak, the number has steadily decreased in size.
They've done some recruiting, and "The Alliance" has grown to include several of their teammates as well.
"Mikey Reilly is our skills coach. That's very important. He's done wonders for our team," cracked Gallagher, who serves as a co-captain and assistant coach along with Lehkonen. "We've also got "KK" [Jesperi Kotkaniemi] on a PTO, but we haven't liked what we've seen. He's going to be released soon."
