Week 7 of the NLL season was the busiest week yet, with seven games taking place. With every NLL team seeing at least one game of action this past week, NLL rookies where on full display. First overall pick in 2014, Ben McIntosh continues to separate himself from the rest of his draft class and fellow rookies, as his back to back four point games this past week allowed the Rush to go 2-0 and leap…
What an exciting weekend. Toronto put a little distance in the East, Edmonton and Colorado switched positions as the Rush swept this weekend, and the Knighthawks came up huge with two wins to go from last to second in the east. And in Calgary….things just get Rougher for the Roughnecks. NLL Power Rankings Week 7 (1)….1—Toronto Rock (6-1) Can’t stop the Rock!! This past weekend the Rock rolled their…
Following a home and home series with the Colorado Mammoth, the Edmonton Rush have taken over the lead spot in the Western Division after capturing both wins. Now sitting at a 4-2 record, the Rush will head into Week 8 of NLL league play taking yet another break. With the two losses, Colorado has fallen to second place with a 3-3 record. The first clash that took place in Denver…
Game momentum changes all the time in sporting events, but I’m not sure I ever saw one change hands as quickly as Friday night’s game between the Rush and Mammoth. Colorado kept the first half competitive as it was a fight the whole way. After locker room time at halftime, the Rush came out revived and swept the game right out from under the Mammoth’s feet, winning 11-7. Edmonton opened…
After the bye-week, the Rush are getting ready to kick off a home and home series this coming weekend against divisional rivals, the Colorado Mammoth. With a strong 3-1 record, the Mammoth sit in first place among the West Division. The Edmonton Rush trail close behind with a respectable 2-2 record leaving them in second place. This series of games could be very telling for the future of the West…
With only two games on the schedule this week a lot happened. Both games were exciting from beginning to end and both went to overtime. The Swarm buzzed into second place with an overtime win at home over Rochester, and Calgary is still winless as they fell in overtime again, this time to Buffalo. This weekend we have seven games, some teams playing twice. A lot can change after Valentine’s…
Week 5 of the NLL season saw the usual suspects in the Rookie Report have big games, Ben McIntosh, Miles Thompson, Eli McLaughlin and Robert Hope continue to shine for their respective teams, showing little to no indication they are only a month into their first NLL campaign. Week 5 also saw the likes of Mark Cockerton and Matt Crough make their NLL debuts, while rookies Colin Boucher and Brandon Clelland picked up…
Photo: Garrett James Only a week had passed since the Colorado Mammoth put their 20-9 pounding on the Vancouver Stealth at the Pepsi Center. Last night the Stealth had not only the challenge of beating the Mammoth on their home floor, but to also put the embarrassing performance behind them, as well as end their 3 game skid. With Lewis Ratcliff seeing his second consecutive season with a healthy scratch…
Colorado remains the only undefeated team in the NLL this season. However, it’s only 3-0. So what if other teams have already lost, it’s still early in the season to make it a huge deal. What’s more is the Mammoth travel to Vancouver tonight, a mere week later after an initial meeting with the Stealth. I’d like to start off objectively: the Stealth lost last week in an away game…
