Game Notes

  • Callum Crawford gets his sixth game winning goal in his Swarm career
  • The Swarm are 11-9 in overtime games in their history.
  • The Swarm held John Tavares scoreless for the first time in his NLL career since 2002
  • The scoreless first quarter for both teams was the first ever in the 28 years of the NLL.
  • Tyler Hass was placed on the hold out list prior to the game and Dominique Alexander was activated from the practice roster to replace him. Alexander did not dress for the game.
  • Former Swarm Ryan Benesch returned to the The Hive for the first time since the trade to Buffalo last July. Benesch had a goal and five assists.
  • Per mnswarm.com - "It felt like it all came together today," Sullivan said after the win. "We've done a lot of things to help the guys prepare and they've done a lot on their own to be accountable and be better. We've put together a string of good games and it does feel like we are getting there."
  • Per mnswarm.com - "We've been battling so hard every game to get a win," Crawford said. "It's a feeling of accomplishment because you know you're beating a good team and they gave you everything they had and we gave it right back. Luckily we were better tonight."
