Sure didn't hurt that they couldn't pass worth crap for most of the game. All of these long layoffs finally caught up to them tonight, I think. Kelowna was much more into this game from the start, and it paid off in the end. Rather frustrated that the hooking call on the GWG was crap, especially in light of the fact that a Hitmen player got decked away from the puck to create the rush, but the simple fact is our special teams were garbage tonight, and that decided the outcome. Both the PP and PK simply have to be better, or this will not be a long series.
Three posts too.
As it is, we did not have a great game, and it was still a see-saw battle. I expect a much more precise Hitmen team tomorrow.
