Advance to the finals with a win tonight.

Why do the Toronto Rock play in Hamilton?

Nice airborne goal for Buffalo.

Wait--they play in Hamilton?  I'd no idea.  They may as well be the Buffalo Rock.

Looks like he scored before time ran out - what happened?

Review showed the clock expired before the ball entered the goal.

Great - video looked like it went in the goal well before time expired …but not going to argue

Those goalies look ridiculous with all that gear and tiny goal. What happened to the lean era of helmet chest protector cup & big cross?

Super close game again...this time the late tying goal for the Rock didn't hit the post, it went in a split second after the clock hit zero.

Bandits hopefully will cruise to a victory in the Finals, although they lost to the Mammoth last time similarly favored.

As wild as the first game...didn't think it was possible to have a better game but this might have done it.

But they still allow tons of goals.

Wouldn't ever trust what the clock says on any internet fed game.  Can't even begin to count the # of times the time shown in an Amerks game or an NLL lax game has been off by a second or 2 (or 20).  Quite often the clock shown on TV tends to start late & stop late, too. It even skips ahead occasionally then might stop briefly, too.

In the broadcast, one of the 2 TSN announcers even said they didn't have the clock to show in the replays.  But, of course he was sure it was in by at least 0.1 or 0.2 seconds.  😉

Mammoth had the late lead last night, but lost in OT, so we won't know the opponent until next week.  Hopefully it's a hard game as the Bandits rest up.

Hoping the Mammoth win, so the Bandits can say they didn't play a single team they didn't beat this season.  They split (embarrassingly) w/ the Riptide in the RS, went 1-2 in the RS vs the Rock, but 2-0 in the playoffs, and Colorado was their only other loss but they've only played once so far.

They moved venues because they were fourth in the order for scheduling and almost never got Saturday home game.
