Zach Fischer and Mark Rassell were both sent back to the WHL by the Flames, according to the Flames official website. The two forwards will return to a Tigers team that fell in a Game 7 thriller against Lethbridge last season in the WHL playoffs. Fischer finished sixth on last year’s Tigers regular season scoring with 63 points in 62 games. He added a team high 145 penalty minutes and was a plus 10. Fischer had 10 points in 11 games in the playoffs. Rassell had 61 points in 72 games during the regular season, and seven points in 11 playoff games. 6-5
