Tigers Explode For Fifth Straight Win 7-1 Over Thunderbirds

Brandon Schinnour — Sun, 08 Nov 2026 05:05:24 +0000

Kent, WA - The Tigers took on the Seattle Thunderbirds for the first and only time this season on Saturday, November 7th in the accesso ShoWare Center. Coming off of four straight wins the Tabbies had a lot of momentum and were looking to close their U.S. Division Trip on a positive note. Shaeffer Gordon-Carroll got the party started with an amazing breakaway goal at 7:46. Gordon-Carroll turned on the jets to blaze past Seattle defenders and jump on a loose puck. Once he was in all alone, the result was all but written. The Midway, Utah native scored a beautiful goal to make it 1-0 Tigers. Seattle took just under 7:00 to tie the game before the end of the first period as Noah Kosick scored his sixth of the season at 14:32. Medicine Hat had a great start to the game, outshooting Seattle 12-7 in the opening frame. The two clubs were tied 1-1 at the first intermission. Their second period was even stronger for the Tigers as they continued to put pressure on the T-birds, looking to break the tie. Gordon-Carroll had another great opportunity as he was awarded a penalty shot but was robbed by Grayson Malinoski as he flashed the leather. Carter Casey made some equally amazing saves on the other side of the ice, stopping all 12 shots he faced from Seattle in the middle frame. Animosity began to grow between the two teams, resulting in a massive scrum at 13:55 that resulted in a 5:00 power play for the Tigers after the grocery list of penalties was handed out. The Tigers took advantage of the big opportunity presented to them in a close game up until this point, scoring three unanswered goals on the same power play. The first came from Gordon-Carroll after he deflected a shot from Liam Ruck at 16:18. Next up was Tyson Moss who picked up his own rebound for his fourth of the season after being set up by both Ruck brothers at 17:53. The third goal on the power play came from the team's leading goal scorer as Luke Cozens fired a one-timer at 18:39 to make it 4-1 Tigers. All three goals from the power play were assisted by Liam and Markus Ruck. The Tigers outshot the Thunderbirds 20-12 in the second period and maintained a 4-1 lead into the second intermission. The Tigers continued with what was working in the third period as Gordon-Carroll completed the hat trick with another power play goal. Gordon-Carroll put away his sixth of the year from in tight at 3:55, making it the fourth straight Tigers goal assisted by both Liam and Markus Ruck. Josh Evaschesen entered the chat with his ninth of the season at 6:28 for the Tigers' fifth power play goal of the night at 6:28. A pair of NHL prospects in Yaroslav Bryzgalov and Arvid Drott picked up the helpers on that goal. With time ticking down, Jake Burmis added one more goal to the Tigers lead as he scored his third of the year at 17:01 to make it 7-1 Tigers. After six unanswered goals and outshooting their opponent 47-27 on the night, Medicine Hat secured their fifth straight win to close out their six game U.S. Division road trip. Special Teams:

PP: 5/5 – 100.0%
PK: 3/3 – 100.0%

Tigers Top Tips 5-2 For Fourth Straight Win

Brandon Schinnour — Sat, 07 Nov 2026 05:48:02 +0000

Everett, WA - The 2025 WHL Champs took on the 2026 WHL Champs for their first and only matchup of the season on Friday, November 6th in the Angel of the Winds Arena. The Tigers held a three game win streak heading into Friday nights matchup and continued their momentum with an early goal to set the tone. Arvid Drott picked up a pass from Jake Burmis in the slot for his third tally of the season to give the Tigers a 1-0 lead at 1:44. Medicine Hat doubled their lead with the team's third short handed goal of the season, this time from Markus Ruck. His brother, Liam Ruck, assisted on the goal and also holds two of his own short handed tallies this season. The Tigers held a 2-0 lead 5:40 into the opening frame. The Tigers continued to play aggressive on both ends of the ice, establishing a dominant presence in post-whistle scrums and during play. Their efforts paid off as Luke Cozens became the first Tiger to enter double digits in the goal category this season, scoring his 10th of the year on the power play at 14:55. Dayton Reschny and Markus Ruck set up the 20-year-old forward for a one-timer to extend their lead to three. The Silvertips picked up a power play goal of their own before the end of the first period. Jazsin Vaughan scored his seventh goal of the season at 15:51 to make it a 3-1 game. The Tigers held a two goal lead at the first intermission after opening the game with three unanswered goals. Medicine Hat was narrowly outshot by Everett in the first frame 10-12. A quiet second period on the scoresheet played a big role in the game's atmosphere as animosity continued to grow between the two clubs. Shaeffer Gordon-Carroll and Luke Ruptash continued to impose their will upon the Tips. Medicine Hat continued to look good throughout the middle frame, outshooting Everett 10-8. Cozens scored his second of the night to open the third period scoring at 6:03. The Whitehorse, Yukon native caught the defence off guard by firing a seemingly harmless wrist shot from the right circle after a zone entry. Everett responded just 1:30 later with Dario Blengino scoring his third of the year to make it 4-2. The Tigers regained their three goal lead with Josh Evaschesen capping off a beautiful passing play for his eighth of the season. Evaschesen connected with Yaroslav Bryzgalov and Cozens for the extra insurance goal. While Everett outshot Medicine Hat 11-10 in the third period, the Tigers closed out the game with a score of 5-2 for their fourth consecutive win. Cash Christie got the nod in net for the Tigers and showed up in a big way. The rookie goaltender played an incredible 60-minute game stopping 29 of 31 shots faced. Special Teams:

PP: 1/4 – 25.0%
PK: 5/6 – 83.3%

Liam Ruck Gets Five Points In Overtime Win

Brandon Schinnour — Thu, 05 Nov 2026 06:01:50 +0000

Portland, OR - The Tigers took on the Portland Winterhawks for their fourth game of their U.S. Division road trip on Wednesday, November 4th in the Veterans Memorial Coliseum. Both teams had a strong first period with Medicine Hat outshooting Portland 13-11. Unfortunately, the bounces heavily favoured the Winterhawks through the first 20 minutes of play as they scored three unanswered goals to open the game. Luke Wilfley had their first, followed by Nathan Brown and Sam Spehar. The Tigers answered back in kind with three unanswered goals of their own to begin the second period. Liam Ruck forced a turnover at Portland's blueline and promptly fed his brother Markus Ruck across the ice. Markus one-touched the pass to Shaeffer Gordon-Carroll who one-timed a shot through the goaltender's five-hole to extend his goal streak to three games at 0:55. In an incredible solo effort, Liam Ruck found the scoresheet just 15 seconds later with his first goal of the night coming at 1:10 as he put away his own rebound to make it a one goal game. After two goals in quick succession to cut the deficit to one, rookie Jake Burmis tied the game with a deflection off a shot from Riley Steen at 8:33, scoring his second goal of the year. Portland was stunned by the early burst from the Tigers to open the second period, but regained their lead with a goal from Jordan Duguay at 13:30. However, that didn't last long as Liam Ruck scored his second of the period at 15:29 after a centering pass from his brother Markus. The teams continued to go back and forth as Portland once again regained their lead with a goal from Jordin St. Louis at 17:39. With just 32 seconds remaining in the period, Liam Ruck tied the game once again with his third goal of the period, completing his second career hat trick. Ruck knocked in a rebound from Kadon McCann to tally his fourth point of the period and make it a 5-5 game going into the third frame. After a surprisingly active second period, the teams followed up with a surprisingly defensive third period. Neither team scored in the final period of regulation while Medicine Hat outshot Portland 11-9. The Tigers started the overtime period on shorthanded as 14 seconds of a Portland power play carried over from regulation. Tyson Moss played hero in the overtime win as he fired a wrist shot from the left circle to end the game 4:17 into the extra frame. Liam Ruck recorded the primary assist on the game winning goal for his fifth point of the night, tying his single game career high. Markus Ruck picked up the secondary assist, getting his third helper of the evening. Carter Casey got the start in net for the Tigers and was a big help in the win stopping 24 of 29 shots faced.

Luke Cozens Named Labels Player Of The Month For September/October

Brandon Schinnour — Tue, 03 Nov 2026 17:00:23 +0000

Medicine Hat, AB - The Tigers announced on Tuesday morning that 20-year-old forward Luke Cozens has been named the Labels Player of the Month for the months of September/October. Cozens will be presented with a suit courtesy of Labels for Men ahead of the Tigers' matchup with the Red Deer Rebels on November 14th, 2026. A product of Whitehorse, Yukon, Cozens recorded nine goals and five assists for 14 points in 13 games through September and October. Cozens leads the team in goals, plus-minus rating, power play goals and game winning goals. He also sits second on the team in points and fifth in assists. The 6-foot-2 right-winger scored his first career hat trick in the Tigers' home opener on September 19th, and proceeded to have four more multi-point games before the end of October. Cozens set a career high last season between the Tigers and the Hurricanes, totaling 61 points in 69 games. He is currently on pace for 72 points in 67 games this year, averaging 1.08 points per game. Cozens was acquired by the Tigers in January of 2026 as a deadline addition for their deep playoff push. The playoff experience and skill that Cozens brought to the Tigers helped the team reach the 2026 Eastern Conference Championship. Just one year prior, Cozens had made the Eastern Conference Championship with the Lethbridge Hurricanes. With two deep playoff runs under his belt, Cozens has made an early statement in his last year of junior eligibility, stepping up and guiding the Tigers to a winning record to start the season. Cozens' veteran presence, natural goal scoring ability and playoff experience has been a big positive for the Tigers.

Tigers Spook Americans 5-1 In Halloween Thriller

Brandon Schinnour — Sun, 01 Nov 2026 03:59:50 +0000

Kennewick, WA - The Tigers took on the Tri-City Americans for their first and only matchup this season on Saturday, October 31st in the Toyota Center. It was a night of ghouls, goblins and goals for the Tigers on Halloween night as they opened the scoring with four goals in the first period. Josh Evaschesen was the first on the board as he scored his seventh of the year at 10:41. Yaroslav Bryzgalov set up Evaschesen for a one-timer to make it 1-0 Tigers. Just 10 seconds later, Arvid Drott doubled the Tigers lead by deflecting a shot from Brayden Holberton for his second of the year. Holberton continued to make a splash for the Tigers, continuing the momentum and energy by laying some bone crushing hits on the Americans. In case 10 seconds wasn't fast enough, the Tigers scored two goals just eight seconds apart later in the period to double their lead to four. The first came from Shaeffer Gordon-Carroll as he picked up a rebound from Riley Steen to make it 3-0 Tigers at 17:48. Eight seconds later at 17:56 Markus Ruck fired an incredible wrist shot from the left circle to cap off the incredible first period from the tabbies. They carried a 4-0 lead over the Ams, while outshooting them 11-3 in the opening frame. The Tabbies didn't quite keep up their scoring pace in the second period, as they failed to find the back of the net but still generated several dangerous chances. Tri-City pushed back hard in the second period, outshooting Medicine Hat 11-8. They found their way onto the scoresheet for the first time of the night with Dylan LeBret scoring a power play goal at 6:52. Holberton continued to establish a dominant physical presence for the Tigers, dropping the gloves with LeBret in the middle frame to keep the energy high. The Tigers held onto a 4-1 lead through 40 minutes of play. The third period continued to produce action on both ends of the ice as each team generated scoring chances. Tri-City tried to close the gap and Medicine Hat looking to widen their lead. A goal off of Evaschesen's skate would have put the Tigers ahead by four, but it was eventually waved off due to a kicking motion. However, Kadon McCann scored the very next shift and the Tigers went up 5-1 anyway. McCann sneaked behind Tri-City defenders and found himself all alone with Xavier Wendt after a centering pass from Drott at 1:51. The Tigers held on for the remainder of the third period and ended the night with a 5-1 victory. Carter Casey got the nod in net once again for the Tigers and had another fantastic showing. He stopped 25 of 26 shots faced and stood on his head a few times to keep the Tigers lead intact. Special Teams:

PP: 0/2 – 0.0%
PK: 6/7 – 85.7%
