Game 62-Hitmen 8 at Warriors 4

[Hitmen1]

The Hitmen wrap up 3 games in 3 nights this evening in Moose Jaw. Broda and Karpov return to MJ for the first time since the trade. I would guess that Michael Snider will start in goal tonight for the Hitmen after Jones started the first 2 games on the trip. The Hitmen are looking for their 51st win of the season. The record is 58 set back in 99/00. The game is on the radio tonight.

As expected, Michael Snider got the start tonight in the Hitmen goal and it was a shaky start as the Warriors scored just 16 seconds in but in the end the Hitmen just have too much fire power and put another 8 up on the board and had one called back. The goal called back was really unfortunate as Kris Foucault would have had his first hat trick but apparently the gate opener at the Hitmen penalty box let Kris out a second too early. Joel Broda returned to the Jaw had a hat trick and one assist. Kozun, possible player of the week, had another big game with a goal and 3 assists. The Hitmen now have a couple of days off before hosting the Blades on Wednesday which should be a great game at the Dome.
