SPRINGFIELD, MA – Just weeks after concluding his WHL career, Medicine Hat Tigers blueliner Dylan MacPherson finally got his shot at the professional level.
Redcliff’s MacPherson made his American Hockey League debut on Friday night for the Springfield Thunderbirds, helping the team to a 7-2 stomping of the Bridgeport Sound Tigers.
MacPherson was held scoreless in the win, however he finished his night with a plus-two rating and one shot on net.
Earlier this month, the Thunderbirds signed MacPherson to an amateur tryout contract after he graduated from the WHL ranks.
