Special teams were the story in Calgary's 6-2 win over the Lethbridge Hurricanes. Calgary went 5-7 on the PP, while killing all 7 of Lethbridges PP opportunities.
Other interesting notes from the game:
- Lethbridge had built up a 2-0 lead early in the 2nd period when Calgary scored their first goal of the game...inexplicably, Preston decided to use his time-out. I think it really cost his team as within 3 minutes of that goal, the Hitmen would score 3 more times to make it a 4-2 game.
- Shultz and Donaghy got around the automatic game for removing your helmet prior to a fight, by taking each others off. It earned them an extra 2 for unsportsmanlike, but it was very funny to watch.
- Once again, Calgary seems to be finding their rythmn again after Jones and Kozun returned, and the addition of Stebner, Shattock and Bubnick. It's nice to see (I know that Lethbridge isn't all that strong, but every time they play Calgary, they really seem to elevate their game)
