It was the Mammoth’s second victory in the last seven games after starting 3-0. Early in the week the Mammoth made a trade to get Jeremy Noble from the Knighthawks. It proved to be a huge pick up as Noble would register (2G/5A/10LB) in his…

What a week!!! A battle of division leaders went to OT, a battle between the teams who played in the Champion’s Cup was decided again by a goal. We even had a goalie score a goal. Calgary loses their fourth one-goal game of the year. Most of the league is off this week as only two games are slated this weekend. But beware, the weekend of March 13-15 is sure…
We had some very exciting lacrosse and some unbelievable performances this past weekend. Some of which included goaltenders not only standing on their head to make some unreal saves, but also had a goalie score a goal, and not on himself. 1-Rob Hellyer–(5G/5A–Tor) Hellyer was a beast on Friday night. Hellyer’s first goal at :35 of the second quarter put the Rock in the lead until Edmonton tied it…

The Colorado Mammoth’s contest against the New England Black Wolves this past week was delayed from 1pm to 2pm due to what was called a weather related issue. Now, we know what the issue really was.

If you were really observant, you would have noticed on the Mammoth bench…
