Adam Jones doesn’t care much for your five goal lead. Jones was at his very best in the fourth quarter of the Colorado Mammoth’s come-from-behind 11-10 win over the Vancouver Stealth. He had the quickest natural hat-trick, the league says, since at least 2005. He erased Vancouver’s lead at 9:08 of the final quarter before winning the game with two seconds left in the game. For Vancouver, the first half…

At the time of the demise of the Edmonton Rush, it could have been argued that the relocation of the 2015 NLL champions was the peak of the league’s biggest concerns. Just weeks after the Minnesota Swarm relocated to a small arena in Gwinnett, Georgia, and less than a year after the league’s oldest team, the Philadelphia Wings, located to a casino in Connecticut, now the champs were leaving.
