Tigers shut out at NHL Draft for the first time in four years
DALLAS, TX – The Medicine Hat Tigers were shut out on the draft floor on Saturday, as the 2018 NHL Entry Draft wrapped up with the second day of selections.
None of Medicine Hat’s 17 draft eligible players were called at the American Airlines Centre, while it’s the first time the ‘Tabbies’ have been shut out in a draft since 2014.
Centreman Ryan Chyzowski was the most likely player to be selected after a 52-point season which saw him ranked 95th among all North American skaters.
The Kamloops, B.C. product will be put back into the pool for the 2019 NHL Draft, with the hopes of being selected his 19-year-old season like Zach Fischer a year ago.
