The offense seemed unstoppable at times this year, and the defense caused so much confusion in games that…
A lot of the team here thought Toronto was coming out of the East. Buffalo proved them wrong! In the West, most of us expected Calgary to move on and they did! This should be an excellent NLL Finals.
