Somewhat Roughnecks related, Canada just went undefeated again in the world indoor championship with a gold medal win over Iroquois. Dickson and Evans on the Canadian side, Shattler on the Iroquois. (Also McBride playing for Ireland, Tyson Roe for England, Poulin for the Czechs)
Canada can pull together a pretty tough to beat squad, so many top NLL names on one team. Vinc turned away a zillion shots, great game from Matthews and Dawson.
Four more years to see if US or Iroquois can put a dent in Canada. As much as I enjoy the indoor game, the previous (outdoor) worlds in Denver was a better tournament. Much closer level of competition.
