Hamblin nets Teddy Bear Toss goal, Tigers fall to ‘Canes 3-1
MEDICINE HAT, AB – James Hamblin sent the Canalta Centre into a frenzy with his first period goal, but it would be the only moment of joy for the Medicine Hat Tigers on Saturday.
Hamblin scored the Tigers’ lone goal of the game in the first period as part of the Tigers annual Teddy Bear Toss game, however the Lethbridge Hurricanes proved to be too much in a 3-1 loss.
Fans waited with bated breath in the first period to launch their teddies over the glass, coming close midway through the frame when Corson Hopwo whiffed on a pass in the slot.
Medicine Hat’s first power play of the night came after a skirmish between Ryan Jevne and Igor Merezhko, and it would be a familiar face stepping up.
