The final game of the Buffalo Bandits’ season was a crucial one. With a win Saturday night in Las Vegas, the Bandits could clinch a home playoff game. We all know that Banditland is built different, so that absolutely was something the boys in orange and black were shooting for. Also, it was a special night as it was Tucker Out Lymphoma night in Las Vegas. Tucker’s dad, Shawn Williams,…
The final Friday night game of the regular season featured two teams with opposite goals. On one side, the Vancouver Warriors have been on an absolute heater as of late, and were fighting for their playoff lives. A win at San Diego and some help across the league very easily could accomplish that. On the other hand, the Seals sat pretty in second place, had their playoff spot and first…
The final game of the regular season for the Georgia Swarm was a big one. They were on their home floor needing a win to secure a home playoff game. On the other side, the Rochester Knighthawks had a slim chance of making the playoffs and this game was the first of two this weekend. Rochester needed to win both and hope for a bit of help in order to…
The Colorado Mammoth needed the closest thing to a miracle if they wanted to get back to the playoffs. A back-to-back didn’t help, but if there is a team gritty enough to make some noise, it’s the Mammoth. The first of the two games was in front of their home crowd against the Philadelphia Wings on Friday night. Philadelphia had already been eliminated from playoff contention, but the role of…
KeyBank Center in Buffalo, New York was rocking Saturday night. 19,070 piled in to watch the Buffalo Bandits and Calgary Roughnecks do battle. The unified standings make games like these fun because these are two clubs that don’t see each other often, almost two and half years to be exact – and yet they have so much history between them. Buffalo could clinch a playoff spot with a victory and…
The last game of the penultimate week of the NLL season was a game with massive playoff implications. The hometown Panther City Lacrosse Club was right on the edge of making the playoffs and quite obviously wanted to keep that position. The visiting Albany FireWolves already solidified their spot, but with a win, they could lock up the third seed and clinch a home playoff game. We love a playoff…
The recipe was very simple for the Georgia Swarm going into their game Saturday night. Win and you’re in. The visiting Las Vegas Desert Dogs came in with no playoffs to play for, but they absolutely could put a damper on the home crowd and the Swarm’s playoff chances. The first quarter in this game was a track meet, with nine total goals scored. The rest of the way was…
The Saturday night clash between the New York Riptide and the Rochester Knighthawks had the feel of a playoff game. The winner of this game would leapfrog into the top eight in the unified standings, while the other continues to stay beneath the “make it” line. The unified standings make things interesting in games like these because of regular old win/loss scenarios as well as tiebreaker potential. This matchup was…
It was Stick Up for a Cure night at Pechanga Arena in San Diego, as the Seals played host to Panther City Lacrosse Club. In partnership with Rady Children’s Hospital, San Diego wore some custom uniforms with a nice blue tint on the back and an inscription of who they were sticking up for. The blue broke up the extreme amount of purple between both sides. The Seals have already…
One would assume with how many times the Buffalo Bandits and Colorado Mammoth have played each other the last three seasons, the surprise factor from each side is nonexistent at this point. In addition, maybe we’ve seen all there is to see when it comes to how the game shakes out. Friday night at the Loud House was proof that these teams still have a lot of surprises for one…
