A) The Toronto Rock made the playoffs for the 14th time in 16 seasons since relocating to Southern Ontario. They finished in second place in the East Division, with a record of 9-9.
B) The Rock finished the 2014 NLL season with the most goals in the East Division (219). This was also good enough for third-most in the league.
C) Rock captain Colin Doyle secured his place as one of the game’s best in 2014. During the season, he scored his 500th goal, recorded his 800th assist and reached 1,300 points in the NLL.
D) Arguably the best player in the game, forward Garrett Billings had yet another stellar season. Billings became the first player in NLL history to record three-straight 100 point seasons, before his campaign was cut short by injury.
