Molnar Blog: Outlaws Hang On Against Launch

I am a Southern California native, so my trip out to beautiful Ft. Lauderdale, Florida began with a 10:30 pm red eye out of Los Angeles International Airport on Thursday evening. Besides my row mate on the plane being a 6-year-old pug named Peter, my flight out was rather uneventful and I was able to sleep for a majority of the flight. I traveled out to Florida with Denver Outlaws…

Cannons Take Opener Against Bayhawks

In their season opener, the Boston Cannons left no quarter in an impressive 15-9 win over the Chesapeake Bayhawks.

Last season the Boston Cannons missed the playoffs, and a big cause was their struggles on defense. The 2014 offseason was spent improving that defense with the trade for Brodie Merrill from Florida and the signing of Jack Reid away from the New York Lizards. In their win over the Chesapeake Bayhawks on Sunday, defense was the key, along with goaltending, which also struggled in 2013. Jordan Burke made eight…
