History
2006-07: Tyrell was likely the most consistent member of veteran-laden Cougars team that underachieved during the regular season and then proceeded to upset both the Kamloops Blazers and the Everett Silvertips in the WHL playoffs. He scored 30 goals and 26 assists while playing a high-energy style in all 72 regular season games. A curious oversight for the annual Top Prospects Game, Tyrell will be a very pleasant, mid-round surprise for the NHL club that calls his name.

2007-08: Tyrell spent most of the season centering for the Prince George Cougars (WHL) in what would turn out to be his last, and best, season in the league. In 68 games with the Cougars, he tallied 25 goals and 40 assists for a total of 65 points. His plus/minus rating was in the basement, a -26 was a career-low. The team didn’t make the playoffs, so Tyrell made the jump to the AHL, playing in 11 games with the Norfolk Admirals where he recorded six points.
2008-09: Suffered a knee injury that limited him to just 30 games.
