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.

Nice to see the team finally put the powerplay and the 4th quarter together.

I disagree about the bad start. 60% of the teams make the playoffs, I dont expect Anaheim will make the post season.

We effectively have a 3 in 4 shot at making the post season. Whether we hope to host a playoff game will depend on how well we do.

Nice to see Colorado lose last night as well. Keeps them from getting more than a step ahead of us.

Right. Maybe it was the hosting a playoff game that I was thinking of. Good to hear we are more than likely going to get in because as we saw last year once you do that anything can happen.
