The Medicine Hat Tigers’ season series with the Saskatoon Blades ended in a tough way Tuesday night.

The Tigers allowed six unanswered goals in an 8-3 loss on the road. They came into the contest on a high after beating the Moose Jaw Warriors 6-3 on Saturday.

Brendan Lee opened the scoring in the first period with his 18th goal of the season.

Saskatoon took over with six straight goals before Shane Smith scored his 10th of the year. Oasiz Wiesblatt had the final goal of the game, his 13th of the year, but it was the Blades with the lopsided win.

The Tigers (11-16-4-1) are back in action tonight when they head to Prince Albert to face the Raiders in their final matchup of the season.
