Tigers take 2-0 series lead over Brandon with 5-3 win
MEDICINE HAT, AB — Zach Fischer scored twice and the Tigers held off a late Brandon surge to take a 2-0 series lead in their Eastern Conference quarterfinal with a 5-3 win over the Wheat Kings Saturday night at the Canalta Centre.
Fischer opened up the scoring for the Tigers with only 11 seconds remaining in the first after good situational awareness by David Quenneville led to him keeping the play alive after joining the rush. Quenneville now has four assists after the first two games of the series.
The Tigers potent power play resulted in Max Gerlach making it a 2-0 game, with his first ever postseason tally coming at the 12:22 mark of the second.
