Being a recent expansion team into the SMJHL, there's not really an established rivalry for the Great Falls Grizzlies. Ideally, the Grizzlies are looking to push deep into the playoffs going forward in order to establish some real success, which should help create some key rivalries. This season, that puts the other teams in our Division at the top of the list for potential rivalries, because each and every time we play them those points are the most vital in determining our final standings and our potential playoff seeding. With that said, it's a fairly tight race through this first part of the season, with Vancouver tied in points, and Colorado with just a 3 point lead at the top of the Division. Over the next few weeks of the season, those numbers could really go either way, with changes in the order of the standings almost a guarantee. Within the Pacific conference, Regina is the closest to a rival, as they were an expansion team along with us. So far this season, they have a commanding lead in the standings, but anything can happen, especially in playoff hockey.
