A four-goal first period helped lift the Medicine Hat Tigers to a 5-1 win over the Tri-City Americans.

Josh Evaschesen and Arvid Drott scored ten seconds apart midway through the first period to give the Tigers an early two-goal lead.

Seven minutes later Shaeffer Gordon-Carroll and Markus Ruck scored eight seconds apart to give the Tabbies a 4-0 lead into the intermission.

Penalty woes would slow down the Tiger offence in the final forty minutes as they headed to the box seven times in the win.
