"Into the Fire": Kalinich Lives Rookie Dream in Calgary
Calgary Roughnecks defender Anthony Kalinich may just be a rookie living the dream in Cowtown, but he's no stranger to playing under the bright lights. His first season with the Langley Thunder proved to be a breakout one, and it put him on the radar of one of them ore consistent NLL clubs of the last decade.

Rookie defender Anthony Kalinich began the year on the Roughnecks practice squad.
Now he’s being asked to help hold down the right side of the team’s defence.
“He’s been asked to do a lot more than we probably thought,” said GM Mike Board. “We haven’t been able to ease him in, we’re throwing him right into the fire. He’s going to make some mistakes, but he’s a sponge out there and he’s learning every game and he’s improving every game. On that front, it’s a positive. He’s a great kid, great in the room, pretty quiet, but he’s a good guy.”
