Minnesota Swarm

Colorado Mammoth
(1-2 H 0-1 A 1-1)

Swarm Suffer First Ever Overtime Loss at the X

Friday, January 22, 2010
St. Paul, Minnesota
Attendance: 8,648

The Minnesota Swarm and Colorado Mammoth battled each other throughout the game but Tom Ethington's overtime transition goal sealed the win for the Mammoth by a score of 15-14.  The Swarm were up 14-13 in the fourth but Brian Langtry's goal with 1:46 left in regulation forced overtime, where Ethington finished off the Swarm.  Both teams are now 1-2 and in last place in the West.  The Swarm have played the Mammoth five times in their history and still have not beaten them.

Callum Crawford had his breakout Swarm game with three goals and five assists to lead the team.  Aaron Wilson had four goals and three assists.  Even though saddled with the loss, Kevin Croswell came into the game in relief of Nick Patterson to make 27 saves on 34 shots.  Scott Self notched his first Swarm goal.  Alex Turner was signed prior to the game to replace Ryan Benesch, who was unable to play due to being sick.  

Former Swarm player Chad Culp, who was part of the deal to bring Crawford to Minnesota, led the Mammoth with one goal and six assists.  Langry, Jamie Shewchuk and Cory Conway scored three goals each for Colorado but it was the Mammoth's transition game that burned the Swarm throughout especially in the second quarter as the Mammoth came back from an 8-4 deficit to tie it at eight, in just a minute and an half.
