2016 NLL Picks and Power Rankings: Week 10

The weekend opened with a second half surge from the Bandits as the defense began to stand tall in the latter stages of regulation on top of the miss from the Saskatchewan penalty shot with twenty seconds to go. Vancouver continues to show their improvement from last season, but it wasn't enough to win against Colorado. Toronto is a mad team and they're going to beat anyone who gets in their way now that they are on a tear. After that we saw some good games between good teams on Sunday.

Week 10:
1. (1) COLORADO - East met west, simply put - 5280.
2. (2) BUFFALO - Win eases necessity to win on John Tavares night. We know how most ceremonies are followed by losses for any team. But wins happen periodically.
3. (3) SASKATCHEWAN - Brought to our attention the carpet has the old logo from Rexall Place.
4. (5) GEORGIA - Swarm got their start in Duluth, now it will be the Blaze's turn soon in MLL play.
5. (4) NEW ENGLAND - Worst special teams Shanny?! Does that mean, Black Wolves will plateau now?
6. (7) TORONTO -  Only MLS First Kick to look forward to at Red Bull Arena vs. NYRB.
7. (6) CALGARY - Another winnable game gone wrong in OT.
8. (9) ROCHESTER - Making race for East look like Premier League soccer.
9. (8) VANCOUVER - They want to see the light at the end of the tunnel, but they find it, catch it, and fall back again. Maybe they'll spring forward with the clocks.
