Ryon Moser scored with 0.8 seconds left in regulation to lead the Swift Current Broncos to a 5-4 win over the visiting Calgary Hitmen.

Moser lifted the Broncos to their 25th win of the season when he collected his 15th goal of the year with the clock beating marker. The teams had skated to period ties of 2-2 and 3-3, and were tied at 4-4 before Moser's deciding third period stunner.

Swift Current's Adam Lowry scored his team leading 33rd of the year in the middle period to tie the game at 3-3 after 40 minutes. The Broncos also had goals from Levi Bews with his 15th of the year, Coda Gordon scored his 15th of the season during a five-on-three powerplay, and import defenceman Richard Nedomlel counted this third of the year.

Calgary was led by two-goal performances from Brady Brassart, who now has 21 goals on the year, and Alex Roach who now has 13 on the year thanks to his 4-4 equalizing goal in the third period and his game opener just 15 seconds into the contest.

Swift Current import goaltender Eetu Laurikainen is now 19-15-2-2 after stopping 29 of 33 shots.

Calgary netminder Chris Driedger is now 25-11-1-2 after yielding five goals on 27 shots.

The win improves Swift Current's record to 25-21-3-2 and moves them into fifth place in the Eastern Conference standings. Calgary falls to 33-14-1-3, with the Hitmen remaining five points behind Conference leading Edmonton.

The Broncos will be on the road this weekend to visit the Edmonton Oil Kings on Friday and the Saskatoon Blades on Saturday.
