Albany FireWolves 12, Philadelphia Wings 10
If either of these clubs are going to make the postseason they'll have to start stringing W's together at a higher pace. Albany took the first step in that direction in this one, led by Alex Simmons (with four goals and three assists) and Kyle Jackson (three goals and two assists).
Alex Simmons had a NIGHT!

Saskatchewan Rush 8, Georgia Swarm 7
A back-and-forth matchup between two teams eyeing playoff positioning. Josh Zawada scored the eventual game-winner with 4:14 remaining, and that was enough to hold off the Swarm. The prolific Lyle Thompson was held to zero goals, but had four assists.
