Two Hitmen fan bus trips in February

The Junior Hockey Junkies are now accepting registrations for two upcoming bus trips. JHJ Bus trip #4 is a day trip up the QEII to Red Deer on Saturday Feb 04 where the boys will face the Red Deer Rebels. The second trip that we are accepting reservations is JHJ Bus Trip #5 on Friday Feb 17 to Sunday Feb 19 with overnight stops in Kelowna (Fri Feb 17) and Kamloops (Sat Feb 18). The first stop will see the Hitmen play the Kelowna Rockets and the next night will see the Hitmen battle the Kamloops Blazers. Full trip details can be seen below.

The Hitmen are fully engaged in the playoff hunt. They currently hold onto 7th place in the Eastern Conference only 2 points out of 5th spot and hold a four point cushion over Brandon who owns the 8th and final playoff position. These trips are yet another opportunity for the Hitmen fans to support their favourite team in an enemy barn as they strive to climb higher in the standings and with a strong finish to the season be the home team in the first round of the playoffs. The Hitmen players and coaches have told us over the years that the travelling Hitmen fans always give them a boost as they play in enemy barns.

“The junkies provide incredible support for our team. Our players always know where they are sitting and can hear them cheering for our team. The dedication they show provides extra motivation for our players.”
Mike Williamson (Head Coach of the Calgary Hitmen)
