Hitmen track down Tigers, shoot into seventh in WHL playoff race yyc
Even better is that the two weekend wins, giving them 66 points, puts the 65-point Tigers between the seventh-place Hitmen and those chasers — the Swift Current Broncos on 62 points and the Brandon Wheat Kings on 60.
“Nothing’s guaranteed for us right now still,” said Hitmen goaltender Brayden Peters, who made 27 stops in Sunday’s decision just a day after securing a 2-0 shutout with 23 saves over the host Tigers. “Right now, our goal is getting to the playoffs and putting ourselves in the best position possible. If that means we can get to seven, then great.”Article content
“I wouldn’t say we’re necessarily concerned about the ICE,” continued Peters. “But obviously, the travel between 13 hours to Winnipeg or 45 minutes to an hour up to Red Deer is a bit of an influence on the first round. But for us, we’ve just got to focus on ourselves. That end of the standings has already decided. Now it’s on us to figure out our spot.”This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below.
“Told the guys it’s the most important period of the season — recognize that,” said Hamilton, when asked what was said in the room between periods. “It was plain and simple — it wasn’t hard. Like if we don’t get that one, there’s no chance for seven. So we needed to rally up — and we did.”
