In one of the most bizarre stories this NLL season, Colorado Mammoth rookie goaltender Dillon Ward has his goalie gear stolen this week, according to the team. The Mammoth were the last team in the west to qualify for the playoffs and they take on Calgary tomorrow night. Ward, the third overall pick in the NLL draft this season, took over as Colorado’s starting goalie during the season and has…
The Colorado Mammoth (8-10) have made it to the first-round of the NLL playoffs, and are ready to take on the Calgary Roughnecks (12-6), their NLL Western Division Rivals on Saturday May 3 in Calgary at the Scotiabank Saddledome. The Mammoth won the regular season series 2-1. The first two games between the teams during the regular season were in Calgary where the teams split. Calgary came away victorious in…
As the final buzzer sounded, the final curtain closed on another season of below .500 play. The Philadelphia Wings (6-12) dropped the final game of the regular season 13-12 to the Colorado Mammoth (8-10). The Wings also finished with a 2-7 record at home. The game meant nothing as far as playoff positioning or in the standings. Wings were eliminated two weeks ago and the Mammoth had their spot locked…

The NLL had a one-in-a-kind weekend. John Grant Jr. joined the 600-plus club (call AARP!), Curtis Dickson was the man for the Roughnecks, and Matt Vinc gave the Knighthawks an awesome victory over the Bandits. First Star: John Grant Jr.—600th Career Goal I’m personally a fan of awards and record breaking. The Colorado Mammoth pulled off the unthinkable and made it to the playoffs. Not that they’re a bad team,…
On Saturday April 5th, the Colorado Mammoth (5-9) return to Rexall Place in Edmonton to face the undefeated Edmonton Rush (13-0).

But even with all the hype,…
Teams continued to make moves in the NLL yesterday as the roster deadline came to a close, and the Colorado Mammoth made one of the more surprising moves by signing veteran defenseman Nick Carlson. Carlson last played in 2011 and played all nine seasons of his career with the Mammoth, except his rookie season with the New York Saints. Over his career, Carlson accumulated 137 points and 425 loose balls….
