This afternoon the New England Black Wolves (2-4) will host the Colorado Mammoth (3-3). Both these teams are winless in their last seven combined games, after winning their first five combined. After winning their first two games the Wolves have fallen on some hard times losing four straight, including Friday nights 13-12 OT thriller of a loss to Toronto. This was their best game since their 17-7 win over Rochester in…
The Buffalo Bandits (4-4) will travel to Rochester to take on the Knighthawks (4-3) for the third and final time of the season. These to foes played against each other last week as well (except in Buffalo) where the Knighthawks managed some late game heroics to get the comeback win.

For the second week in a row the Calgary Roughnecks (0-6) will look for their first win of the 2015 season against their division rival the Vancouver Stealth (3-3).

Week 7 of the NLL season was the busiest week yet, with seven games taking place. With every NLL team seeing at least one game of action this past week, NLL rookies where on full display. First overall pick in 2014, Ben McIntosh continues to separate himself from the rest of his draft class and fellow rookies, as his back to back four point games this past week allowed the Rush to go 2-0 and leap…
When New England travels up to Toronto to face the Rock, it will be matching the East Division’s best record against the worst. New England has been changing their roster around much more in the recent weeks, so it will be interesting to see how they look both offensively and defensively. For the Black Wolves on offense, adding Brett Bucktooth to the lineup produced immediate benefits. In his first game…
Tyler Digby has arrived on the NLL’s big stage as the Vancouver Stealth’s go-to gritty power forward with silky smooth mitts. Digby is only in his second year with the Stealth, but has put up gaudy offensive numbers working as a tandem on the right side with sharpshooting Rhys Duch. The pair has been deadly at times; they are currently one-two in the Stealth’s scoring leaders department. They have a…
Heading into the 2015 NLL season the Toronto Rock were faced with two key injuries at the offensive end of the floor. 2014 leading scorer, Garrett Billings had suffered a torn ACL towards the end of last season, and would be lost to the club for at least the first half of the 2015 season. If that wasn’t bad enough, captain Colin Doyle, who racked up 72 points last season suffered a…
