Nov 2, 2025 | 7:26 PM

The Medicine Hat Tigers‘ comeback attempt came up short Sunday evening as they overcame a two-goal deficit to secure a point, but fell 4-3 in overtime to the Tri-City Americans.

American’s forward Cruz Pavao played overtime hero, scoring the game-winner 2:07 into the extra frame.

Tigers captain Bryce Pickford was assessed a double-minor for high-sticking in the final minute of regulation, setting the stage for the eventual game-winner.

The Tigers trailed 3-1 entering the third period but scored a pair of power play goals 26 seconds apart to square the game even at three.

Jonas Woo powered the Tiger offense with a three-point night, his third multi-point game of the season.
