Headed into tonight’s game between the Edmonton Rush (15-2) and Vancouver Stealth (4-12) it would appear the Rush could just rest on their way to a first round playoff bye. With the history these two teams have playing each other over the years, and the Rush chasing their first Champions Cup victory, I do not see the Rush lying down. In fact I see the Rush making a strong push…

The only issue still facing the team right now is where they will face the Toronto Rock in the opening round.

New home, new arena, new players, all with new results. The 2014 season for the Vancouver Stealth could not be further than losing in the Champion’s Cup game a season ago.

From a defensive standpoint, we have loose balls and forced turnovers, which can give you some valuable information, but doesn’t truly give you the full picture. And goalies are kind of in the middle of those two extremes: lots of stats, but none tell the…

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,…
