It was a record-tying night inside Co-op Place Saturday night as the Medicine Hat Tigers defeated the Lethbridge Hurricanes 7-4.

The Tigers tied their longest win streak in franchise history with their 17th straight win, and captain Bryce Pickford tied the franchise record for the most goals by a defenseman in a single season, tying Kris Russell with 32.

The Tabbies wasted little time getting the offense rolling, striking seven seconds into the game with Kade Stengrim tallying his ninth of the season.

From there, the Tigers wouldn’t look back as Andrew Basha, Dayton Reschny, Jonas Woo, Liam Ruck, and Luke Cozens would also add singles, with Cozens getting his first as a Tiger against his former club.

Jordan Switzer got the start and win for the Tabbies, turning aside 17 of 21 shots faced.
