Tigers Defeat P.G 4-1

The game on the webcast was a slideshow so I didnt watch much of it.

Hunter Shinkaruk capped an empty netter for his hat-trick scoring his 43rd,44th, and 45th goals of the season. Brendan Hurley scored his 2nd as a Tiger giving the Tigers a 2-1 lead at that point.

The same callups Blake Penner, Chad Butcher and Kyle Becker all played again.

Playoff Spot Clinched
With the win tonight the Tigers officially clinched a playoff spot.


Scoreboard Watching
Kootenay lost to Edmonton, Regina lost to Red Deer. Calgary squeaked by the Broncos

Calgary remains 4 points back with a game in hand. Kootenay has dropped to 9 points back with a game in hand.

The Tigers travel to Vancouver for a game friday and then face Kootenay for a Home and Home which could be huge in deciding Home Ice Advantage.

Good close game until Hunter scored a great goal
Good to see Hurley score.

Interesting tha Blake Penner was in the lineup for both games. Thought he was going to school and playing hockey in Ottawa.
