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…
GoPros are the hottest thing in sports nowadays, as we saw at the NHL skills competition on Saturday night. Now the NLL has brought them in and Colorado Mammoth forward Adam Jones wore one for practice. Check out the cool video below.
NLL season is just four weeks in and there is only one undefeated team left. The Colorado Mammoth lead the West Division with a 3-0 record after a convincing 20-9 win over the Vancouver Stealth. The Stealth have struggled on defense, giving up an average of 18 goals per game in their past three. But that does not undermine the fact that Colorado has scored 20 goals in a game…
Last night the Vancouver Stealth (1-3) played on the road and got blown out of the Pepsi Center by the undefeated NLL West Division Leaders the Colorado Mammoth (3-0). Vancouver having the most G.A. in the league and second most saves pretty much sums up their season thus far. Colorado moved the ball phenomenally well all night, and continued to put the rock in the back of the net, amounting…
Week 3 of the NLL season was a quite one, as just one game was on the schedule. The Buffalo Bandits, after having a bye week in week 2 of the NLL season, traveled to Vancouver to take on the Stealth. Vancouver was coming off a devastating 20-11 loss to the Toronto Rock, and bolstered their defense with the signing of Colin Boucher and the activation of hulking 6’3, 220…
