Tigers look to snap road-skid in Cranbrook
Medicine Hat have dropped six straight games on the road, their last away victory coming January 24th in Edmonton.
The Tigers can snap that skid Friday night and sweep a double-header against the Kootenay ICE. Medicine Hat took Tuesday’s nights match 3-1 at the Canalta Centre. The Tigers lead the season series 4-2-0.
Kootenay is still clinging on to their playoff hopes, they are two points back of the Red Deer Rebels who have a game in hand on the ICE. The Rebels dropped a 6-4 decision in Calgary Wednesday.
The Tigers have eleven games left in the regular season and hold a three point lead on the Lethbridge Hurricanes for top spot in the Central division. While the Hurricanes have a game in hand on Medicine Hat, they are coming of a crushing 8-2 loss on home-ice to the Prince Albert Raiders.
