Following the goal, he found Brad Smith for a goal (Smith’s second) and with seconds remaining in the half he found Williams (another ho-hum hat trick for Williams) bringing Rambo’s first-half point total to five.

He was just getting started. 

In the second half, 2020 MVP-candidate Jose Nardella’s domination at the stripe became too much to overcome (winning 70% of his matchups). 

The Archers were able to tie it in the middle of the third but, without the ball it is impossible to sustain a comeback. 

Rambo continued saucing up the Archers’ defense and dropped eight dimes to break the PLL record for assists and his two early goals ended up being garnishes on a PLL record 10-point afternoon.

The Whipsnakes broke it open with a six-goal fourth quarter. With a lot of the ‘Whips getting in on the action.

Ramifications 

The Whipsnakes, the reigning champs, will be heading into tournament play with the number one seed. 

The Whips currently possess the best faceoff man, the best offense, the best statistical defense, and haven’t lost a game in 343 days, good luck to their next opponent.

For the Archers, the loss means they’ll be dropping to third in the standings and will take on Atlas on Tuesday at 10:30 PM ET on NBCSN.
