The past few seasons it was pretty clear to most people that Toronto was going to win the cup, as they were pretty much unstoppable for their three seasons with WinGod, dominating the regular season and playoffs. This year, most expect Calgary and Riga to be in the finals due to their free agency success, once again another season without much question as to who will win the finals. This is not meant to insult teams like the Legion or Express this year because they are good enough that they could defeat Riga or calgary in the small sample size of the playoffs, and perhaps anything could happen. However, the way I see it, Riga and Calgary likely will be the finals teams, keeping the competition stale for yet another season. Less competition means less rivalry (which will also be lessened by 2 player rule), and just a lack of excitement for all involved in the cup race.
