Local hockey player scores winning goal at the Royal Bank Cup

Fort St. John’s Braden Pimm scored the first goal of the game, and it held up as the winner, as the Vernon Vipers beat the Humboldt Broncos 2-0, in Sunday’s final of the Royal Bank Cup. 

Defenceman Kyle Bigos added a beautiful insurance marker, to secure his spot as tournament MVP. 

The win made the Vipers the winningest team in Canadian Junior A Hockey, as they went 6-and-0 in Victoria, to claim their fifth national championship.
