Maybe there could be a western Canada three-way trophy for Calgary, Vancouver, and Winnipeg. I think that the T-Can One Trophy is a bit weak as a name, but it's all I've got.

Individually, with Vancouver, we might have the Cross-Rockies Cup and with Winnipeg, the Plainswreck.

I presume my Dragons would have three main rivals (Seattle, LA and Portland).

San Francisco-Seattle: The Jian-Katana Duel (given both cities' respective Chinese and Japanese populations)

So many ideas in my mind for SF-LA too, but my mind's blank for SF-Portland.

I would call the SF-POR rivalry the Shasta Cup, since that's what divides the two states.

Well, well.  Boston, we meet again!  It IS true that you've beaten us every time we've met so far, (giving us an estimate win-loss record against you guys at 0-149... give or take a couple games). 

However, Hockey Owner Stickman's (new) personal psychic, (who shall henceforth only be known by her screen name of Madam Bertha.  Fun fact, when she's not making inebriated-induced predictions, she's also a dedicated lunch lady at her local school's cafeteria) boldly predicts that the Los Angeles Titans shall FINALLY beat the Rovers!  She's feeling a series of 7 games to 4.   We'll just take a couple games off each team and call it 4 games to 1.

How many freaking psychics does this man need? Like seriously. Good grief. Like, he goes through more physics than I do girlfriends.... I haven't any, but still. Point stands!

Haha, well every owner has their quirks to produce championships.  George Steinbrenner fired managers on a whim, Robert Craft helped his team spy on others, Hockey Owner Stickman hires psychics from the back alley, the list goes on!
