WINNIPEG, MB — 2020 NHL Draft prospect Lukas Svejkovsky scored twice as the Medicine Hat Tigers struck for four-unanswered goals Wednesday in a 4-1 victory against the Winnipeg ICE.

In the second, Svejkovsky and Jonathan Brinkman scored in a 22-second span to put the Tigers into the lead. Late in the third, Svejkovsky made it a 3-1 and Cole Sillinger closed out the scoring with his 15th goal of the season.
