Tigers Re-assign Deagle

Medicine Hat, AB – Medicine Hat Tigers announced today they have re-assigned 16-year-old forward Jordie Deagle.

Deagle, from Lethbridge, AB will remain in Medicine Hat and join the Big Country Oilfield Services Midget AAA Tigers.

“We have re-assigned Jordie to the AAA midgets here in Medicine Hat,” said Tigers’ general manager/head coach Willie Desjardins.

“Jordie has come a long way from the beginning of the season and to continue his development we feel he needs more ice time. This opportunity allows Jordie to join a very good organization where we can watch him progress,” said Desjardins.

The Tigers are preparing to play two games this weekend starting off on Friday in Lethbridge before returning to The Arena to play host to the visiting Kootenay Ice on Saturday. Game time is 7:30 p.m.
