Hitmen face a trap game tonight though. Facing the second worst team in the league in their last game before the xmas break. Hopefully they can leave PA with a six game winning streak.
Former Hitman Ian Duval was named the player of the week, and Brett Sonne is playing for Team Canada!

I was @ the Blades/Hitman game on Tuesday, and while the Hitmen played well, and showed that they can quickly capitalize on mistakes, the Blades had this game for the most part until the refs made a couple of really bad calls (or rather non calls on Holtby getting run), resulting in a Hitman pp...which resulted in a goal, then a bench penalty from the Blades after the goal, then another goal within a minute. Holtby was rattled after that.
I did like the Blades take on the pre Christmas toss. They didn't have people throw teddy bears, but instead touques, gloves and scarves to help people out. Even sold touques 2/$5 if you didn't bring one. I figure that this is a whole lot better than throwing stuffed animals.
