Wow! Thats a widespread topic....
Guys like Tom Marechek, Gary Gait, John Grant jr., Tracey Kelusky, John Doyle, Jim Veltman, John Tavares, and Dallas Eliuk are the all time greats still playing (I'm sure I'm leavin some out)
Best teams are:
Toronto Rock

Vancouver Ravens
Rochester Knighthawks
Calgary Roughnecks
San Jose Stealth
Arizona Sting
Anaheim Storm
...in that order

LiquidMercury, I'd like to know who you're talking to. A lot of teams are worried about facing the Wings this season. They have a highly talented, young team, thats just dying to win games. They're strong, fast and able to run up scores. The only thing I see in this team they need to improve is their passing at times. But as a whole, I know I wouldn't want to defend those attackers they are sporting.
Go hit the person that told you the Wings will be no good with a hammer or something. I think they're delusional! LOL jk

r'necks are going to a bit better than that, coming back from a 6-2 deficit (sp?) to win 10-8, not bad with I believe Ted Dowling getting 4 goals and 3 assists.

Greener.....that list changes as the season rolls on. I mean after all, the Wings are either the top, or second place team overall now that we've gone through 3 weeks.

Ok, I though someone had just ordered them how they thought they would do this year, my bad.

Don't worry Greener....
I wonder about those people who post "top 10 lists of the best teams at the end of the year". I mean, what do they know that we don't? 99% of the time.....nothing.

The Wings are 2-0 out of the gate. They made it look easy against Rochester. As for my beloved Rock...they didn't keep the "foot to the floor" against Rochester. The Rock have to learn that scoring in single digits won't win games in the NLL anymore, now that the talent pool is deeper because of the demise of Ottawa and NY.
ADIDAS.....

yeah except the rock hadnt played yet and chester wa fueled by getting schooled twice.... grant jr... is great but the rest of chester is.....well it is too amwerican on defense and they NEED some good ol' canadian hard knocks of box lax and some natives..... Bomberry losses hurt.... As for the rock, time will tell, need I remind u they got off to slow starts the last 2 years?!?!?!?
And I am going on the record of saying, " IF THE ROCK LOSES.... I WANT IT TO BE TO PHILLY, CHESTER, OR GARY GAIT..... (whether it's just him, or the veteran's club in colorado....lol)
One last thing...who the hell are the TORONTO ROADIES???? If u got intermediate, lemme know cuz i am really starting to hate the Toronto Stars dis-organization....

PaulGaitRulz,
The Roadies are a Fann Cup team. The Fann Cup is a charity tournament in which fans from all over the NLL compete for bragging rights, and one cool *** glass, which holds 3 pitchers of beer I'm told. So far 4 of the 10 cities have represented themselves in this tournament. Their teams are as follows:
Philadelphia Wingnuts
Toronto Roadies
Rochester Krew
Buffalo Brigade
Maybe Roadies 31 can help me out on the names, if I'm incorrect on any....
