While the Flames season appears lost, the Hitmen are beginning their second season on Thursday.  Calgary won the Scotty Munro Trophy as regular season champions for the second year in a row, Brandon Kozun won the scoring title with 107 points and Martin Jones was the top goaltender in the league.  Eight players scored 20+ goals.  Calgary finished the regular season on a 23-2-0-1 run.  There really is a team in this city that knows how to win in the clutch.

First round match-up is against the Moose Jaw Warriors.
