Medicine Hat Tigers trade Jordan Switzer to the Moose Jaw Warriors

Jul 28, 2026 | 12:40 PM

The Medicine Hat Tigers have tidied up their goaltending situation just under one month before training camp begins.

Jordan Switzer has been traded to the Moose Jaw Warriors in exchange for a 2027 fourth-round draft pick, a 2029 second-round draft pick, and a conditional 2030 sixth-round draft pick.

Switzer posted a 54-14-4-2 record, a 2.78 GAA, 0.894 SV%, and six career shutouts over 78 regular-season games with the Tabbies.

The product of Edmonton, Alta., won a WHL Championship with Medicine Hat in 2025 and now heads to Moose Jaw for his 19-year-old season.

With Cash Christie waiting in the wings, a trade of either Switzer or second-year netminder Carter Casey felt inevitable.

Now it will be the two CC’s competing for the starting job.

The Tigers had made early-season trades involving goalies in each of the last two seasons and now will enter camp with a clear two-horse race between Christie and Casey for the starting job.

Medicine Hat also recently signed 2010-born netminder Ben Meyer last month, who will also get the chance to compete against Christie and Casey in camp.

Moose Jaw and Medicine Hat meet for the first time in the 2026-27 season on December 4th inside Co-op Place.
