In the end, it proved costly for the Calgary Roughnecks. Because time got away from them returning from San Diego where they won Friday night, the host Roughnecks incurred a delay-of-game infraction to start the National Lacrosse League contest and allowed an ensuing power-play goal. “I thought Mike Board and the Calgary Roughneck organization did one heck of a job in negotiating our travel,” said Roughnecks head coach Curt Malawsky. “Obviously it stinks when arguably your best offensive player goes down with an injury,” said Roughnecks sniper Curtis Dickson. His second was the only tally of the second quarter, giving the hosts a 5-4 lead at intermission.
