INTERVIEWS: Tigers host Ice for final time this season
MEDICINE HAT, AB — The Medicine Hat Tigers are hoping to build up their point total heading into the final games of the regular season, as they host the Kootenay Ice tonight at the Canalta Centre.
All six of the Tigers final games are against divisional opponents. After the Tigers host Kootenay, the Edmonton Oil Kings make their way to the Gas City on Friday before the Tigers head up to the provincial capital on Saturday. After that, Medicine Hat takes on Red Deer next Tuesday, with the final two games of the season as a home-and-home series against the Lethbridge Hurricanes.
Tigers assistant captain Steven Owre knows his team can’t slow down, knowing their two-point lead over Lethbridge can swing either direction very quickly.
