Nov 19, 2022 | 4:24 PM

MEDICINE HAT, AB – The Medicine Hat Tigers are in action Saturday for the second half of their Saskatchewan road trip, against the Prince Albert Raiders.

The Tabbies are coming off a 4-3 overtime loss against the Saskatoon Blades, in which their record moved to 6-9-4-1 on the season.

The two squads have met in one prior contest back on Nov. 8, where the Raiders were victorious at Co-Op Place 3-1. The loan goal for Medicine Hat was scored by Tyler Mackenzie.

Prince Albert is being piloted offensively by both their forward and defence groups. Right wing Carson Latimer is tied for the team lead in points at 19, and the man he is level with is defenceman Landon Kosior.

Latimer does hold the better points per game average, as he has played one less game than Kosior this season.
