Quad City Mallards News Release


INDEPENDENCE, Mo. (January 24, 2015) - Josh Brittain and Jack Downing scored third period goals and Mike Clemente made 26 saves as the host Missouri Mavericks (15-19-4) survived a late scare to hold off the Quad City Mallards (18-14-6) 2-1 Saturday night.

Brittain broke a scoreless deadlock from the doorstep just 39 seconds into the third. Downing swooped into the right wing circle to double the Maverick lead at 8:10.

The Mallards were on the power play when Joe Perry cut the gap to 2-1 by burying a rebound with 5:37 remaining. The Mallards twice came within inches of tying the game in the final seconds while up 6-on-4 after going on the power play and pulling goaltender Parker Milner (29 saves). Missouri first escaped when the Mavs' Jared Brown swept the puck away from the goal line with the net gaping; with just 7 seconds left Nicholas Rioux fired the Mallards' final chance off the crossbar.

The Mallards return to action at home next Wednesday night at 7:05 p.m. against the Wichita Thunder. Fans can get four tickets to Mallards Wednesday night home games for just $20. After each Wednesday night home tilt, fans can join the Mallards at T.G.I. Friday's in Moline for a postgame party.
