I've really fallen behind here so basically here is the short of the last 8 Hitmen games. This is going all the way back to Dec. 12 vs the Rebels.

Dec. 12-vs Red Deer-Hitmen win 2-0
Dec. 14-vs Bruins-Hitmen win 3-2
Dec. 15-at Ice-Kootenay wins 3-2
Dec. 17-vs Rockets-Kelowna wins 5-1
Dec. 28-vs Moose Jaw-Warriors win 6-1
Dec. 30-vs Brandon-Hitmen win 5-2
Jan. 1-at Medicine Hat-Hitmen win 3-1
Jan. 2-at Regina-Pats win 4-3 in the shootout.

4-3-0-1 record over the past 8 games.

Misha Fisenko hasn't been able to play since the Christmas break as he has been stuck in Russia due to the snow storm.

Even though the Hitmen have been playing much better lately, with just a few days until the trade deadline it is fairly clear Kisio will be looking to trade most veteran players. Based on the cost some teams have already paid, it could help speed up the rebuild for the Hitmen. Players like Fiddler, Foucault, Bubnick, MacKenzie and possibly Snider are all going to be up for grabs.
