Nov 9, 2026 | 2:02 PM

After posting 11 points over three games, Medicine Hat Tigers forward Liam Ruck has been named the WHL’s Player of the Week.

Liam had a pair of five-point nights to bookend the week, helping the Tigers to a 5-1-0-0 record on their U.S. Division road trip.

Liam’s twin brother Markus, was also exceptional, putting up ten points over the Tigers past three games.

The twins from Osoyoos, BC, combined for 28 points over the six game U.S. road trip.

The play of the Ruck twins has helped aid the Orange & Black to a five-game win streak while bolstering their power play to a league best 38.9% on the road.

The Tigers return home to play eight of their next ten games at home, beginning Friday night against the Calgary Hitmen.
