The Coquitlam Express made the journey out to Chilliwack this weekend to face off against the Chiefs.

The Express came into this game ranked third in the Coastal Conference, and the Chiefs came in ranked fourth. This game was set to be an important one for both teams.

It was also expected to be tight game. Last time the two faced off the Chiefs won 3-2 in a dominant showing that saw the Express struggle to get off any real offence.

The story was different tonight though.

The game was as expected. Back and forth goals kicked off the first period, and the Chiefs took the lead in the second. The Express battled back though and won the game in shootout!

Maybe it was the moms coming out and showing support for the night that gave the Express the extra push to help them win the game.

The moms certainly seemed to enjoy the win for their boys and overall it was a feel good night for the Express team.
