This week on “Ask The Pros” we speak with one of the pure goal scorers in the game today; the San Jose Stealth’s Jeff Zywicki. The pride of Nepean, Ontario currently leads the Stealth in scoring, and is 8th overall (having played less games than all but one scorer ahead of [...]
This Week on “Ask The Pro’s” we had a chance to chat with a player whom many feel will be the 2008 NLL Rookie Of The Year; the Swarm’s Craig Point. The rookie who just turned 22 last month was highly touted coming out of Ontario Junior Lacrosse (winning a Minto Cup) and has stormed into the [...]
In our next session of “Ask The Pro’s we head west again to speak with one of Coquitlam, British Columbia’s native sons, Derek Malawsky. Derek is in his 10th season playing Professional lacrosse and was picked up by Portland in the Dispersal draft from Arizona.
Derek has been a top scorer in both the Junior and [...]
This week on “Ask The Pro’s” we had the chance to speak to AJ Shannon of the Edmonton Rush. I know you’ve likely read me commenting each week on how so many Pro’s in the NLL are great guys, very professional, etc. But it is true, and you can throw AJ in that same category. I’ve [...]
In the first of our 2008 “Ask A Pro” Interviews, we had a chance to chat with Dan Dawson of the Portland Lumberjax. With the Arizona Sting not entering a team in 2008 Dawson was quickly selected first overall in the dispersal draft by Portland.
In his first game in a Lumberjax jersey this season, he [...]

Although not yet considered a powerhouse team, they are making strides each year, and in the coming 2008 season they may make that leap.
With several off [...]

In Calgary, Cordingley takes over a team that ended [...]
In keeping with franchises with a tradition of winning we next had a chance to visit and speak with the new Head Coach of the Colorado Mammoth, Bob McMahon. Bob is no stranger to coaching in the NLL, having led the Albany Attack to the Championship final in 2002, after a 14-2 record. That year [...]
Ask any fan around the league who they would most like their team to beat, and I would guess the number one answer would likely be the Rochester Knighthawks. Not only are the K-Hawks the defending Champions, but they are a perrenial powerhouse team, top to bottom.
With all world players like John Grant Jr., Sean Williams, [...]
In our next chat on the fast approaching 2008 NLL season we speak with the General Manager of the Minnesota Swarm, Marty O’Neill. Marty has been with the Minnesota organization since they joined the league in 2004.
Minnesota is another team looking to improve on what you could say was a ”good” season in 2007. With a number of young, [...]
