Haden shines in homecoming, scores winner against Tigers
MEDICINE HAT, AB – Gary Haden haunted his former team on Friday night, scoring the game-winner in his return to the Canalta Centre ice.
Playing in his first game in Medicine Hat against his former team since being traded in October, Haden netted the go-ahead goal early in the third period as the Blades edged the Medicine Hat Tigers by a 3-1 final.
He wasn’t the only ex-Tiger to cause the Medicine Hat squad fits on Friday though, as Max Gerlach also converted with a power play goal against his former squad in the win.
Linus Nassen and Josh Williams connected midway through the first period to give Medicine Hat the early lead, with the Swede finding Williams alone for the winger’s third of the season.
