A second, four-score streak solidified the easy six-goal victory.

A Game Of Runs In Rochester
Rochester’s Blue Cross Arena was the locale for a thrilling back-and-forth battle between the hometown Knighthawks and visiting Saskatchewan Rush, with the fellas from Saskatoon escaping Western New York with a 14-12 win.
Rochester took a 5-4 lead into the halftime intermission. Coming out of the tunnel on a mission, the Rush reeled off five straight goals to begin the third stanza, eventually connecting on 9 of the second half’s first 11 goals. With Saskatchewan now the proud owners of a 13-7 separation, the high-scoring Knighthawks elected to make a game of it, uniting on five straight final-quarter blasts, turning a six-goal laugher into a one-goal nailbiter. With great drama, Matt Hossack scored on a vacated net, securing his club’s two-goal conquest.
Newly acquired Austin Shanks continues to make an impact for the Rush, producing four goals and helping on three more. Red-hot Zach Manns shined yet again, notching a hat trick, to go along with three assists.
The Rochester Ryan’s (Ryan Lanchbury and Ryan Smith) combined for six goals and five assists, while Connor Fields only found the net on one occasion, despite serving as a benefactor on four of his team’s scores.
Will Malcom Sends Socks Into The Colorado Sky
The Colorado Mammoth selected Will Malcom with the first pick of last summer’s Dispersal Draft. Four games into his new life on the front range of the Rocky Mountains, the 25-year-old forward appears to be settling in nothing short of beautifully, as Saturday’s 19-14 win over the Halifax Thunderbirds featured a Malcom game for the ages.
With nearly 9,000 fans bearing witness, Malcom posted an incredible seven goals and three assists, with his first four scores occurring in the first quarter of play. Connor Kelly added four blasts and three helpers, with Eli McLaughlin retaining a hat trick. Connor Robinson was also a big part of the festivities, aiding his buddies on seven of their scores.

This game of runs comprised of Mammoth five and four-goal bursts, along with a Thunderbirds three uninterrupted score display. Colorado maintained a five-score lead after 30 minutes, with the second-half tally never inching closer than three. This game very much belonged to the 2022 NLL champions.
Dawson Theede performed well in defeat, contributing three scores and four helpers to the Halifax cause. Jason Knox procured a hat trick, with Randy Staats and Clarke Petterson combining for a dazzling 14 assists.
