Calgary's goalie stole "game 3", i thought the Rush were clearly better and momentum was finally starting to shift their way but they just ran out of time.

Once they got up 11-2 it was all Calgary. The Rush held on and barely one the game, but momentum was clearly in favor of the 'necks. 4 goals in 80 seconds though, that was fun.

It was actually more impressive than that, 5 goals in 90 seconds and an NLL record.

tough loss. the series was lost in the last 22 seconds of the first game. that game was theirs, and they let it slip away.

stupid format

The referees stole a playoff series away from the Rush. During that game apparently the Calgary had 6 players on the field at the same time as the Rush, but only the Rush got a penalty for some reason. Also the Calgary player apparently stepped on the crease on the penalty shot and they didn't even bother to review it.

Perhaps the music was playing too loud and the officials couldn't concentrate on what they were doing.

Yeah, it's awful that the NLL tries to provide constant entertainment. I really wish there were a few extended lulls in the action and some arena wide silence would be nice too.

Pretty good season going for the Rush so far. 10-5 and top of their division.

The Rock are probably the undisputed champions cup favorite but less than a finals appearance for the Rush would be disappointing IMO.

not having a 12 game undefeated strike (like last year) going has actually helped the club mentally.

they certainly have the horses to win it all. that would sweet. Memorial cup champs, CIS champs and NLL champs. The the Esks to follow!!

the more teams that can make Katz get uncomfortable, the better.

I would agree, but I really don't think Katz cares about winning whatsoever. The Oilers are just a pawn he used for his palace downtown. So long is money is funneling in that way, he has no pressure to worry about the Oilers.
