Fritzler shines as Cubs beat Flyers 7-5
HIGH RIVER, AB — After falling 6-5 in overtime hosting the High River Flyers last weekend, the Medicine Hat Travelodge Cubs earned sweet revenge over their division rivals with a 7-5 victory on the road Friday night.
Mason Fischer, making his debut in a Cubs uniform after committing to the team earlier in the day, left an early impact.
The Medicine Hat product put the Cubs on the board early, after veteran forward Mackenzie Fritzler fired Fischer a pass just 2:32 into the opening frame, putting the road team up 1-0.
Fritzler picked up another assist moments later, as Cooper Hilworth put the Cubs up 2-0.
