Game Recap

Brett Hextall Feature

Kodiaks’ Olsen Injured

There’s your daily quota of hockey reading, on a winter-esque day in Camrose, Alberta.

Give credit to the Camrose Kodiaks, they we’re the better team Friday Night in Game 1 of the Doyle Cup… And the Vees were most certainly not.

Video will be available from Penticton but not from games in Camrose.
