Game 19-Oil Kings 2 at Hitmen 3

[Hitmen1]

I missed a couple of games over the weekend as I was off getting married in Canmore.

Tyler Fiddler and the Calgary Hitmen (13-5-0-0) host Mark Pysyk and the Edmonton Oil Kings (7-9-0-3) for a Central Division match-up.



The Hitmen are coming off a three-game road trip through B.C., posting a 1-2 record in that span, but currently hold a four-point lead for first place in the Central Division. The Hitmen own the WHL’s top-ranked power play, currently clicking at 31.0 per cent efficiency.



The Oil Kings are coming off a 2-1 shootout loss to the visiting Everett Silvertips on Sunday for their second straight defeat and their sixth loss in seven games, but remain in third place in the Central Division. The Oil Kings are 3-3-0-2 on the road this season.

Congrats on the hitchin'.

Thanks.


What a final 90 seconds. It took the Hitmen that long to break Lanigan but they did it and won the game. It really seems like the Hitmen aren't able to string together 3 good periods in a game. Last night it was the 2nd period. The Hitmen just had all kinds of trouble breaking out and just skating. But in the end a win is a win and 2 more points.
