The Minnesota Swarm have re-signed goaltender Kevin Croswell to a one year deal and Noah Talbot to a three year deal, as per the NLL transaction page. These are the first signings by the Swarm this off-season, and the first since GM Marty O'Neill left the team in June.
Croswell proved to be a capable backup to All-Star Nick Patterson, playing in four games with a 1-2 record and an 11.69 GAA. He made 1116 saves, finishing the season with a .795 save percentage. In four years with the Swarm, Croswell is 5-13, with an 11.52 GAA, and a .773 save %.
Talbot signs a three year deal, which is a significant commitment in the NLL, and for a 32 year old defenseman. Talbot played in all 16 games for the Swarm last year, posting 2 assists, gathering 22 loose balls, and taking just 6 PIMs. In seven NLL seasons, Talbot has 3 goals and 30 assists and 68 loose balls (all in past two seasons).
Neither signing is shocking, with the Swarm locking up players who helped lead them to the NLL playoffs, and their first home playoff game in team history. More from the Swarm as soon as we can get it.

Croswell is a guy I could see the Rock being interested in. Wonder what the Swarm would want?
