Butcher takes home top Tigers honour
MEDICINE HAT, AB — It came earlier than the Tigers would have liked but on Thursday night the team wrapped up their 2016-17 campaign with their annual Year End Reception and Awards Banquet.
Taking home MVP honours was graduating Kamloops, BC native Chad Butcher who amassed 103 points during the regular season.
“There’s some pretty cool names on the trophy, some guys I looked up to a little bit so it’s definitely cool and rewarding,” said the 21-year-old who spent his entire WHL career with the Tigers following the ceremony.
