To be honest, being a rookie I'm not 100% sure who the main rivals for Regina are. However, this season, our closest competitor in the standings has been the Quebec City Citadelles. Currently they have some strong special teams with 20.7% success on the power play and 85.4% success on the penalty kill, which can be frustrating since special teams can often tilt the game in one team's favour.

Currently, the season series stands at 3-2 in favour of the Citadelles, with pretty much every matchup we've had so far being quite close (a bunch of one goal games). Many tight fought matchups can often lead to tension and tempers flaring.

As well, on a personal note, I have no idea what a Citadelle is, so I have a slight bias against them because of that. Their logo is some kind of weird snow bird thing, which confuses me even further. I'm not sure if it's supposed to represent a bird or not, but I will leave it at that without doing any further research.
