In the playoffs, however, everything changed as the Rush beat both the Calgary Roughnecks and Minnesota Swarm in dominating performances, before losing to the Rochester Knighthawks 9-6 in the championship game. The Rush made a number of significant moves in the off-season, most notably trading captain Brodie Merrill, Dean Hill, and Mike McLellan to Philadelphia for Athan Iannucci, Alex Turner, and Brodie McDonald as well as first-round draft picks in three future drafts.http://www.nll.com/article.php?id=5134 NLL.com Philly & Edmonton Make Blockbuster Trade August 9, 2011 September 6, 2011 October 11, 2011 https://web.archive.org/web/20111011230227/http://nll.com/article.php?id=5134 dead They also picked up Kyle Rubisch and Ryan Dilks from the Boston Blazers dispersal draft,http://www.nll.com/article.php?id=5161 Philadelphia acquires Dan Dawson September 9, 2011 2011-09-09 dead https://web.archive.org/web/20110927083034/http://www.nll.com/article.php?id=5161 September 27, 2011 and Shawn Williams, Aaron Wilson, Chris Corbeil, Aaron Bold, and Kevin Croswell in other trades.
