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.

First game I went to this year. Snyder played the game on his knees and the Bruins went high. And every Chilliwack PP, Howse went to the slot and got at least 4 great shots from in there. Other than a few short stretches and the last 5 minutes, the Hitmen didn't seem to have any intensity. Even then, I though there were 2 glorious chances to tie it in the final minute.
