Fort Worth Brahmas News Release
The Indianapolis Ice rallied from a 4-2 third period deficit to come all
the way back and beat the Fort Worth Brahmas 5-4 in overtime Friday night
at the Pepsi Coliseum in Indianapolis, Indiana.
Right wing Joey Bastien was the offensive star in the game for Fort Worth,
scoring two goals and assisting on two others. Also finding the back of
the net in the contest for Fort Worth were second year forwards Justin
Williams and T.J. Warkus.
Warkus scored 1:04 into the final period to put Fort Worth seemingly in
control of the game with a 4-2 lead. The Ice however, would not be
denied. Forward Jared Dumba drew the Ice to within 4-3 at the 5:39 mark
of the third period, and then Dumba tied the game at 4 with his second
goal of the game with just 53 seconds remaining in regulation.
In the overtime period, Indy's All Star defenseman Bernie John netted the
game winner 2:38 into the extra session.
This was the third time in four games this season between the Brahmas and
Ice that the outcome was decided in either overtime or a shootout. Fort
Worth has lost two out of those three games (1-0-2).
Tyler Nilsson, the Brahmas standout rookie goaltender, allowed the five
Ice goals on 45 shots. Indy netminder Brent Zelenewich stopped 28 of the
32 Brahmas shots he faced in the game.
The overtime loss drops the Brahmas record to 13-24-7 on the season, while
Indy improves to 25-19-2 for the year.
Fort Worth will look for a little revenge tomorrow night when they take on
the Ice again at the Pepsi Coliseum. Game time is set for 6:00 p.m.
CST.
