A dominating defensive performance and Tom Schreiber being Tom Schreiber were exactly what the Toronto faithful had been waiting for as the Rock continued their turn-around with a 14-9 victory over the Calgary Roughnecks on Friday night at Scotiabank Saddledome.

There is no gentle way to say this. The Buffalo Bandits have dominated the Toronto Rock over the past few seasons, no matter if it’s the regular season or the playoffs.

Their rivalry is arguably the fiercest in the NLL…

Food for thought: Is it really that uncharacteristic if a team loses to the same opponent eight straight times and suffers three straight eliminations from the playoffs? Regardless of that, game two of the semifinal round was set from KeyBank Center in Buffalo, New York. Buffalo won game one Friday night in Hamilton, so they set their sights on punching their ticket to their third straight Finals appearance. Banditland was…

Uncharacteristic. It’s perhaps the only word to describe the Toronto Rock’s 12-4 loss to the Buffalo Bandits on Friday night. Prior to game one of the semifinal series, Toronto (who sported the best goal differential in the regular season) had never been shutout in a half in the playoffs (it was 5-0 at halftime). The Rock matched a franchise low in goals scored (4: Jan 12 in Minnesota, and Feb…
