Tigers Vs Calgary Preview

The Tigers have a chance at getting redeeming themselves from last year. The Hitmen absolutely dominated the tigers all year, last year.

"This is the first of six meetings between the Calgary Hitmen and the Medicine Hat Tigers this season. Last season, Medicine Hat has posted a (0-6-0-0) record versus the Hitmen (0-3-0-0 at home) and (0-3-0-0-0 in Calgary) with the Hitmen outscoring the Tigers 29-8 and out-shooting Medicine Hat 191-133.

Current Tiger, Linden Vey (3A) managed three points in six games versus Calgary. In six appearances, goaltender Ryan Holfeld (0-5-0-0) allowed 21 goals (4.43 G.A.A) on 150 shots (.860 Save %) while rookie Tyler Bunz was 0-1-0-0, allowing seven goals (5.72 G.A.A) on 41 shots (.829 Save %) in three appearances.

On the power play, the Tigers were 2 for 30 with the man advantage (06.7%), while killing off 23 of 37 Calgary power plays (62.2%). "
