It bothers me that people complain that LMK characters who get any form of redemption don’t say “sorry” on screen, like, they’re showing it through their actions, ever hear of “actions speak louder than words???”

Luke Prokop/Matt Rempe - a rivals with benefits primer

Sometimes the rpf writes itself folks! TL;dr: Two Alberta boys who have played against each other since U15s. All throughout their youth career, Luke was always the one who got the recognition, went to the invitational tournaments and dev camps. He was the one who won the cups. After they big rivalry game in the WHL Cup Finals, Luke wins. It's been all Matt ever since.

Juniors

It's full Battle of Alberta with these two! Matt is from Calgary, Luke is from Edmonton. They have legit been in each other's orbit since 2016, when they both in the Canadian Sport School League (CCSHL) at U15. Luke eventually made it U18, while Matt took another year to crack the U18 B team. Luke is a U15 and U18 champion. Matt never made it to the quarter finals.

WHL

Halfway through the 17/18 season, Luke leaves the CCSHL to join the WHL. To add insult to injury he joined the Calgary Hitmen (Matt's hometown team). When to the WHL playoffs in 18/19 while Matt was in the AJHL. By 19/20, going into their draft year, they both played in the WHL, Matt in Seattle. They were in different divisions to only played each other once and Seattle won. The season was covid cancelled, but the scoring race was hot! Luke has 23 points in 59 games played against Matt's 31P in 47GP. (Luke is a defensive defenseman! No one expects him to score much)

Draft (2020)

Luke went 10th in the 3rd round (#73 overall)

Matt was picked 9th in the 6th round (#165)

Post-Draft WHL

20/21 is a shortened season. Matt gets the A in Seattle and Luke in gets the A Calgary. They don't play against each other.

Luke comes out the summer of 2021. He becomes a recognisable name immediately. The news start calling him "gay hockey player Luke Prokop".

In 21/22, they didn't play against each other all season. Luke loses the A, eventually leaves Calgary for his hometown team of Edmonton, and kills it again on the score board (35P in 58GP). Matt gets 23P in 56GP in his second year as an assistant captain.

21/22 WHL Championship final

It's Edmonton Oil Kings vs. Seattle Thunderbirds! Going into the finals, Luke has 10 points and Matt has 13.

In Game 1 in Edmonton, Calgary Boy Matt Rempe scores the first goal of the series.

Hometown ground breaking player Luke Prokop sets up the only Edmonton goal in the game towards the end of the 3rd period. [1] [2]

The Rivalry Match (Game 2) [highlights]

They were legit around each other all game [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9]

Luke has a 4 point (2G2A) night, with his first at the start of 2nd period [3]

Matt answers back with a goal of his own 2 minutes later. (Luke is on the ice and Matt looks back at him during his celly.)

30 seconds later, Luke scores again (it's a beauty).

Later in the period, both Matt and Luke get primary assists on PP goals. (Matt is on the ice for Luke's assist. Again, it seems like there's an exchanged glance during the celly)

Luke has another assist on the game winner. Matt tries to block his shot but it gets tipped anyway. Edmonton wins.

The next day, Luke is named WHL Player of the Week. He also won the CHL Humanitarian award earlier that week. [10]

In Game 5, Matt scores the game winner to push the series to game 6. Edmonton win the series in 6 games to win the WHL Cup, but the series leaves them beaten and bruised. They lost all but 1 game in the 2022 Memorial Cup.

Post Rivalry Match

In 22/23, Matt plays 53 games in the AHL and Luke joins the Seattle Thunderbirds (yes, Matt's old team). Wins the WHL Cup a second time but Seattle eventually loses 5-0 in the Memorial Cup final.

In 23/24, Matt plays mostly in the AHL, with 17 NHL games. His NHL debut is massive: first debut at an outdoor game, fight in his first shift, immediately becomes the talk of the town. He also plays in 11 playoff games for the Rangers. Luke plays mostly in the ECHL with a few call ups to the AHL.

In 24/25, Luke is in the AHL full-time but is regularly a healthy scratch (31GP) and is not rostered for Milwaukee's playoff games. Matt is up and down between the AHL (18GP 5P) and the NHL (42GP 8P 67PIM)

The 2025 offseason followed a similar pattern. Matt is re-signed to a 2 year contract with the Rangers and has become a certified hockey blorbo. Luke was not signed by the team that drafted him and ends up signing a 1-year 2-way (AHL/ECHL) contract with Bakersfield. The articles written about this still refer to him as "gay hockey player Luke Prokop" (but at least he has Elton John's number, I guess.)

The Rivalry has shifted

Until Matt left the WHL, Luke was always on top. Always one step ahead, playing in better teams, more recognition, better results. But since then it's been all Matt. He has more NHL games than Luke even has in the AHL. He's a certified NHLer even if he gets into hot waters constantly (literally one suspension away). He has a team and the fandom in his corner.

They haven't played against each other since Luke's team beat his and took the WHL cup. I wonder how long it'll be before they're facing off against each other on the ice again.

In the meantime, though, they seem to be in some form of contact. Following and liking each other's stuff on IG occasionally. (When they like each other's stuff, it's always in bursts. Almost like they met up or stalked each other's social media?? 👀👀)

"원인불명"

*원인불명

알 수 없는 불안함이 계속 엄습한다.

우리 엄마는 어느날 갑자기 아팠다.

아니 아픔을 진단받았다.

원인은 알 수 없었다.

이유없는 질병에 우리는 모두 무너져내렸다. 일상도 미래도 모두 멈춰진채로 현재의 문제를 쳐내기 급급했다.

그런 와중에도 엄마는 엄마를 되짚었다. 뭘 잘못 먹었던걸까, 이런걸 하지 말았어야 했을까,

그런 생각들이 원인이 없는 병의 원인을 만들고 싶어했다.

이유 없는 청천벽력에 우리는 그대로 휩쓸렸고 지나갈 아픔에 그대로 노출되어 울고싶었다.

그래도 누군가는 현실과 싸워야했다.

그렇게 우리는 갑자기 쏟아진 일들을 온몸으로 받아내면서 그런 시간을 지냈다.

그리고 지금 잔잔해진 파도가 불현듯 불안해지곤 한다.

언제 저 불안이 우리를 집어삼킬까 두려워서,

기우일지 모르지만 나 스스로 그걸 막지 못할까봐 그런게 불안해지고야 만다.

아스라이 먼, 없을 이야기일지라도.

*원인불명

일어나는 일들의 99.999%는 전부 원인이 있을 것이라고 생각한다. 작은 날갯짓, 스치듯 마음을 훑고 지나간 한 마디, 짧은 순간이지만 강렬한 인상, 스쳐간 옷깃, 마음을 움직인 장면, 놓칠 뻔한 눈빛, 무심한 솔직함, 호르몬의 장난 등.

*원인불명

언젠가 한때 잠시 살았었던 집으로 다시 돌아왔다. 귀찮게 자꾸만 날 껴안고 배를 만져대던 인간은 나를 이곳에 내려두고 어째선지 잠시간 울먹이더니 혼자서만 돌아갔다. 몇 날 며칠 큰 인간 둘이서 싸우고 울고 난리 법석을 피우더니 아마 그 주제가 나의 거취 문제가 아니었을까, 이제서야 유추할 수 있게 됐다. 어느 날부터 나보다도 작은 인간이 하나 들어오더라니, 아마도 그들은 조막만 한 나의 영역까지도 필요했을까. 아니면 그간 내가 너무 안하무인격으로 요구사항이 많았던 게 이유였을까. 장거리 영역 이동을 그간 몇 번이나 해봤지만 그때마다 그 이유가 무엇이었는지에 대해서는 조금도 알 수가 없었다. 기운 빠지고 막막한 일이다. 다행인 일이라면, 나를 유난히 좋아해 줬었던 인간을 다시 만났다는 것. 그땐 분명 두 명이 있었는데 어째선지 지금은 한 명만 보인다. 둘이서 영역 싸움이라도 했었던 걸까. 한동안은 이곳의 대장에게 잘 보이려 노력하는게 좋겠다. 어쩌겠어. 잘 적응해서 살아야지 뭐.

*원인불명

고양이를 보호소에서 첫 눈에 반해 데려왔고 고양이를 데려오자마자 많이 아팠다. 한쪽 뒷다리를 사용하지 못할 정도로. 어디가 아픈지는 모르겠고 병원부터 무작정 예약했다. 솔직히 금액도 두려웠다. 동물병원 가면 30-50은 나오는 것 같았으니.

내 몸에 이동가방을 지니고 버스를 타고 이동했다. 5kg는 생각보다 무거웠다.

수의사 쌤 말은 이러했다.

뼈에 이상이 없고 고양이가 큰 통증을 느끼지 못하네요. 원인을 모르겠습니다. 무통주사를 놔드려보겠습니다.

엑스레이 비용조차 안받더라. 더 무서움이 찾아왔다. 원인없는 병이라니. 동물 병원 가면 다 해결될 줄 알았다. 호전은 없었고 이미 살도 빠지고 밥도 안먹고 겨우 와서 애교만 부리는 정도. 알고보니 고양이는 통증을 숨기는 동물이랬다.

주사의 효능을 별로 느끼지 못한 채 이틀이 흘렀고 병원에 재진하러 또다시 방문했다.

여전히 나아진 게 없다 하자

부작용으로 토를 할 수도 있겠지만 진통제는 먹여봅시다. 제가 계속해서 원인을 찾아내지 못하면 정형외과로 가야 할 것 같네요.

정형외과? 수의사한테 간다고 문제가 해결되는 게 아니구나! 찾아보니 큰 병원에서는 외과/내과/수의사까지 나누는 듯 했다. 솔직히 말하면 비용이 가장 큰 걱정이었다. 그래서 제발 먹고 나아라 먹고 나아라 생각했다. 이미 내 생활비를 줄여서 용품에만 20을 쓴 터이니 큰 복병이었다.

고양이는 생각보다 회복 속도가 좋았다. 이틀치 약을 먹고나니 살도 다시 붙고 다시 온 집안을 뛰어다닐만큼 날로날로 빠르게 호전되었다.

지금도 수의사는 왜그런지 모르겠다고 한다. 원인은 그냥 짐작일 뿐, 십자인대 문제인지 바이러스 때문인지 나또한 예상할 수 없다. 모든 건 추측이고 아픈지 안아픈지는 고양이 자신만 알테니. 다만 문제가 해결됐다면 해결만 됐다면 원인이 중요한가.
