Indeed. Anyone who looks at the shot totals will be badly deceived about the Hitmen play. I'd say at least 30 shots were from the outside with no screen. Even Roloson is going to stop those... most of the time. Not sure if they finally started to believe their own hype, but it just felt like the Hitmen weren't all that interested in battling for pucks. Chilliwack was, and that earned them enough chances to pull out the win. I didn't notice a single Bruins player really standing out, it was a good team effort for them.
Feel bad for Snyder, because he was terrible last night. The kid has done well as our backup, but we might as well have just played with an empty net. He'll bounce back though.
