Tyler Oswald makes his WHL debut stopping 15 of 17 shots mid-way through the Saskatoon Blades defeat against the Brandon Wheat Kings. Replacing Saskatoon's starting goaltender Steven Stanford after Brandon's fourth goal at 10:10 of the 2nd period, Oswald saw a total of 29 minutes for his first feel of WHL season play.
As the Wheat Kings turned up the heat in the second period moving east to west behind the net and then feeding an open man in the slot Oswald was able to shut the door with a lightning quick flare of the glove on the far side shot against Winnipeg's David Toews.
