Adam Jones doesn’t care much for your five goal lead. Jones was at his very best in the fourth quarter of the Colorado Mammoth’s come-from-behind 11-10 win over the Vancouver Stealth. He had the quickest natural hat-trick, the league says, since at least 2005. He erased Vancouver’s lead at 9:08 of the final quarter before winning the game with two seconds left in the game. For Vancouver, the first half…

It may be too soon to suggest this was a season-saving win for the Vancouver Stealth, but an eight-goal run that propelled the Stealth to a 14-13 overtime victory over the Calgary Roughnecks may have done just that. Corey Small scored the winner at 1:16 of overtime, capping off a first-star performance as Vancouver moved to 3-4 on the season with a pivotal win over the rival ‘Necks. Calgary moves…

By bringing back an old face, the Vancouver Stealth aren’t exactly bringing a new look to the crease, but it could be a welcomed one. Tyler Richards is back in the NLL after signing a one-year deal with the Stealth yesterday, just over six months after retiring from the game due to concussion-related injuries. This year will be his eighth in the league after being drafted 46th overall by the…

Coming off a major win over the defending champion Saskatchewan Rush, hopes were high for the Vancouver Stealth to find some consistency in what has been an otherwise inconsistent tenure since relocating from Washington. If Saturday night was any indication, those hopes may have to be put off until next week.

For much of the first half of the game, the Vancouver Stealth competed with New England in a high-intensity game with a lot of back and forth between the two defenses. Goalies Eric Penney and Evan Kirk were both solid in the first quarter—Garrett Billings scored a rocket top corner on the power play, Rhys Duch found Joel McCready who slipped a pick and got over top of Evan Kirk…

If someone were to show you a tape of the Vancouver Stealth’s 17-7 loss to the New England Black Wolves, you would have sworn you were watching tape of last year’s team. In a “no excuses” season for the Stealth, the team came out with a lackluster performance, falling to the visiting Black Wolves for their third season-opening loss in as many as years since relocating to Langley, B.C. Many…
