Wayne, NJ - After starting the season undefeated in seven games, the Hitmen hit a bit of a tough stretch. Prior to this past weekend, the defending 2015 Dineen Cup Champions were 3-3 in their last six USPHL league contests. Over that 6 game stretch, the Hitmen were struggling scoring goals, then their struggles would shift to defending their goal and their penalty kill was abysmal. That inconsistency lead to a few changes in the Hitmen line up and those changes yielded a weekend sweep of the first place, PAL Jr Islanders.
