Admin Victor 11,021 Posted December 19, 2023 Admin Share Posted December 19, 2023 Cologne has threepeated! Woo-hoo and congrats! The Express have experienced a true Renaissance in the VHLE, attracting the cup like a magnet after only winning one championship in their 27-season long stay in the VHL. Here's some fun tidbits coming out of Cologne's latest victory. Cologne and Oslo have now won the last 7 Renaissance Cups between them. Ironically they were the last two franchises to claim a championship (ignoring Geneva who never did) and now haven't let anyone else touch it. Oslo and Cologne haven't actually contested many finals in that time period. The Storm beat the Express in S85 before Cologne avenged that defeat in S87, but otherwise the duo have bullied the rest of the league. Rome has been the unlucky bridesmaid on three occasions and have the joint-most finals appearances with Cologne but just one cup to show for it. Vasteras have continued reliving their VHL nightmare by being unable to match their inaugural season win, despite putting together strong rosters. Bratislava and Stockholm have wisely decided to avoid the finals since the Cologne-Oslo duopoly began. And finally, Jordan Bennett has become the first player with 4 Renaissance Cups to his name – fittingly, 3 with Cologne, 1 with Oslo. Cologne loyalist Al Land is hot on his tail though with 3 straight cups. jacobcarson877 and Scurvy 2 Link to comment https://vhlforum.com/topic/143002-cologne-wins-again-and-other-vhle-history-is-made/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
