KAMLOOPS —The Kamloops Blazers have once again won in their rival city of Kelowna, although this time under different circumstances.

Local center Logan Stankoven returned to the Blazers line-up for the first time since being chosen to represent Team Canada for the U-18 World Championship, and he showed why he’s worthy.

Stankoven scored four points – two goals and two assists – including the game winning goal in a 4-3 overtime victory over the Victoria Royals on Saturday (April 4). Forward Orrin Centazzo also scored a goal and two assists.

The Blazers remain a perfect 4-0 in the B.C. WHL Hub. They return to play on Monday (April 5) against the Vancouver Giants at the Sandman Centre in Kamloops.
