A clear theme emerged after Week 5 in the Winners portion of our Winners & Losers, and how could it not after seeing what the Georgia Swarm did with its road double-header?

As for the Losers part? That's more of a mixed bag, but ILIndoor covers all the bases with this week's edition. Check it out.

Winners

Bob Chavez

Georgia Swarm. A 2-0 road swing through Toronto and Rochester is impressive enough. But to win 1 with offense (20 goals in Toronto) and one with defense (9 goals allowed vs. Rochester) is quite the feat. Especially when you consider that Saturday's win was the first in Rochester for the Swarm since 2008.

Marty O'Neill

Georgia Swarm. Back to back wins on the road for the youthful group against the Eastern Champs on Friday and the 3 time champs on Saturday is no small feat. This weekend can be a charachter builder and a confidence builder for the rest of the year. Brodie MacDonald played well on Friday despite what the score said and on Saturday he shut the door, giving the Swarm the goaltending they need to compete in the East.

The new look Blackwolves. Adding Evans and Crowley on the O-gate was a massive coup for this group to finally have proven scorers and leaders up front. But the work Glen Clark and Jim Veltman have done with that back end unit is phenomenal. An American heavy group is playing well above expectations and it's paying off immensely. Having a few new veteran faves on the back helps as does Evan Kirk have a fantastic start to his year. The Wolves are the real deal.

Graeme Perrow

Georgia Swarm. Two more division wins this weekend have them in second in the east, Johnny Powless is scoring more than two points per game higher than his career average, and they have four legitimate Rookie of the Year candidates. It's not surprising that they look like they're having a lot of fun.

Losers

Bob Chavez

Friday's special teams in Toronto. Georgia was 5-for-7 on the power play. Toronto was 8 for 9. The Rock scored 17 goals total, which should be enough to win any game. But scoring 8 power play goals and still losing? And the Swarm allowing 8 and still winning? I guess it was just one of those nights.

Marty O'Neill

Vancouver Stealth. Even with their top players putting up points the Stealth lost going away in Calgary and fell to 1-3. It doesn't get any easier with division leader Colorado coming to town next weekend in a must win situation. The Stealth have decent numbers on special teams but the GAA is killing them. The defense must find the discipline it needs to dig out a win.

Teddy Jenner

Idle Rock. 0-5 was never in the playbook and now the Rock find themselves on a rare two week break. This could turn out to be a 'win' as Toronto will be able to put some healthy bodies back in the lineup but after scoring 17 goals I imagine Toronto would prefer to get back to work.

Graeme Perrow

Rochester Knighthawks. Five points from Cody Jamieson, Stephen Keogh, and Dan Dawson combined? Getting shut out in the first quarter? 13 goals scored on Matt Vinc on only 44 shots? How very un-Rochester-like.
