Toronto Legion - Victims of the Revenge Tour

[dstevensonjr 395]

The Toronto Legion won the S91 Continental Cup, defeating the Chicago Phoenix, Los Angeles Stars, and Helsinki Titans along the way. Each of the teams that they defeated vowed revenge against the Legion in the following season for ending their Cup bids, and so far this year they have done just that.

 

The Legion have faced those three teams a total of six times this season (2 against Chicago, 1 against Los Angeles, and 3 against Helsinki), and so far have gone a combined 0-6. Here's a breakdown of how those matchups have gone:

 

Toronto vs. Chicago

Game 9 - @ CHI - Phoenix win 2-1

Game 10 - vs CHI - Phoenix win 3-1

 

Toronto vs. Los Angeles

Game 5 - vs LAS - Stars win 4-1

 

Toronto vs. Helsinki

Game 13 - @ HEL - Titans win 3-1

Game 22 - @ HEL - Titans win 4-0

Game 24 - vs HEL - Titans win 5-3

 

Toronto has lost the 6 revenge games by a combined score of 21-7, showing that these motivated teams are handling their matchups with ease. Outside of the revenge games this season, the Legion are 13-5-2. They'll need to get a much better handle on these revenge games in order to move up the standings.
