Really don’t care as deeply about the rivalry as the 2000s teams that wanted to shove it in our face.
Sure those fans are still there but Utah has gone out and got a bunch of guys that are pretty far removed from it. It hits different for a team that has been told they just aren’t talented enough, aren’t fast enough, aren’t big enough to hang with the big boys. The chip is squarely on the shoulders of the cougars. What still scares me is that the guy that refuses to let a chip be knocked off his shoulder is their HC. It won’t be easy but it looks like it will be a fun time at LES North.
