Good to see the boys get off the shnide. In the NLL a bad start can all but eliminate you from playoff contention in a hurry.

Kelusky with 5 goals.

I really think that the decision not to have any exhibitions games is hurting the Roughnecks, particularly when they are facing teams that played 2 or 3 pre-season games. I understand logistically it was a challenge to organize exhibitions games but the amount of rust they have shown in the early season can largely be attribute to not having any game action. Hopefully a lesson learned for next season that won't cost us a playoff birth this season.
