S66 SMJHL PT #3 - Rivalry Week
|
![]() File Worker Top 100... in our hearts
Historically Vancouver and Kelowna were rivals, but I'm going with a rivalry in the making. Vancouver and Regina. The two teams have been thrown into the same division, and both have similar trajectories. Both teams are coming around from rebuilds and will likely have the same contending window coming up. They are poised to be 1 and 2 in their division this season, meaning the contending may be starting earlier than anticipated. I think this "rivalry" won't be one that lasts for more than 3 or 4 seasons, but this could be a really good pair of teams for that duration. Antonio Flusso and Rod Cocker are two rookie defenders who are very close with one another who find themselves on opposite ends of this, which makes for a somewhat interesting storyline. Rod Cocker, passed on by many teams, including Vancouver has a bone to pick with just about everyone. Could he bring his "A" game against the team that denied him to be on a defensive pair with his friend? Personal stuff aside, the team windows lining up and the divisional placement makes for an ideal current rivalry.
