" A+"

I don't know who the Tigers are going to war with, but they have more ammunition than the PLO. Four legitimate heavyweights in Brett Shefflemaier, Brad Voth, Stephen MacIntyre and feisty newcomer Ryan Chieduch. Ken Davis and B.J. Fehr are no slouches either, making one wonder what style of hockey the Tigers are gonna play this year. Bouwmeester shouldn't have to worry about skating room with these guys around and it makes one wonder, where did the Tigers get the money to buy the banana plantation they're going to need to feed these guys. No need to worry about toughness for the Tigers this year and if anything, they may look to unload some.

 

Ken Davis
RW...6'4"...213lbs...03/20/81
Figured out in Portland if he couldn't find the net he'd better find someone's face with a fist or two. This guy went from a highly touted scoring machine to a grinder who can chuck the leather pretty good. Long arms and a fast punches can make Ken a dangerous guy to fight.
 
 


Ryan Chieduch
D...6'1"...200lbs...01/25/82
Here's a guy who puts the battery on his shoulder and says, go ahead, make my day in every fight. Throws bombs and hopes he doesn't get hit by anything incoming as he doesn't understand the word defence. Very exciting guy to watch fight as you know he won't be wearing a seatbelt.
 


B.J. Fehr
D...6'5"...225lbs...03/09/81
Kelowna thought they had another Scott Parker on their hands as B.J. dismantled former Chief tough guy Curtis Suter in back to back fights two seasons ago, but then he ran into Ty Jones of the Blazers and ended up wondering where he was. Still B.J. is big and not a guy to be taken lightly as he can throw 'em and some kind of hard.


Jeremy Goetzinger
D...6'4"...215lbs...06/26/80
Not really a fighter when he was with P.A., however since joining Maxwell's Hurricanes he certainly has been more active in the fight game. Not much information on how he's done so far, but he certainly has the size to be effective
 
 


Ryan Olynyk
D...6'0"...202lbs...08/28/82
Big, physical D-man has spent a month in our top ten rankings and will probably find his way back there if he keeps playing his style of hockey.  Probably won't need to scrap on a nightly basis as the Tigers have one of the best arsenals in the league.
 


Brett "My name's as long as my arms" Schefflemaier
D...6'6"...216lbs...03/31/81
See "The Mayon Event" central for info on Brett. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 


Brad "The sloth" Voth
RW...6'6"...220lbs...02/25/80
As with Brett, this kid lives in our "Mayon Event", central division.
 

After approx. 40 games

B+

With all the scuttlebutt that has surrounded the Tigers this season it's a wonder they have as many wins as they have.  Not likely to go anywhere this season the Tigers are well equipped to preserve what talent they do have.  The Tigers have one of the ugliest defences in the WHL and I don't mean that from a skill point of view.  With Brett Scefflemaier, Jeremy Goetzinger and B.J Fehr all hovering around 6'5" and 220lbs and Ryan Chieduch and up and coming tough guy, Ryan Olynyk both around the 6', 200lb mark, the Tiger's defensive zone is an ugly place to step into.  With Brad Voth and Ken Davis up front the Tigers have all the ammo they need to go to war with anyone.  It's big time rebuild time for the Tigers but when it comes down the stretch and you have to play these guys you better hope that they're in a passive mood, because they could make the difference between finishing your season healthy and simply finishing your season.
