Rockets Burn TIgers 7-2

It was the Tigers 6th game in 8 nights as the Tigers finished up their 5 game road trip out west.

Looking at the game stats the Tigers outshot Kelowna in every frame, however they lost big on the battle of special teams. Kelowna scored 3 powerplay goals, and added 2 shorthanded goals. The tigers went 0for 6 on the powerplay. Tyler Bunz was pulled after the first period giving up 4 goals on 8 shots.

The tigers are currently second in the conference based on points, however they have played 56 games, 6 more than Calgary, and 4 more than Kootenay. Both teams could very well catch and surpass the tigers.

The tigers have 16 games left on the schedule and only 4 of those are road games(Calgary,swift,lethbridge,kootenay).

Here is a link to the recap in Kelowna's Newspaper.
