KAMLOOPS – Kamloops Blazers’ center Logan Stankoven notched his 100th point of the season in Saturday (April 9) night’s OT thriller loss to the Portland Winterhawks.

Despite the Blazers’ loss, Stankoven added three points to his season total pushing him to 102 points in the 2021-22 WHL Regular Season.

His night was spoiled when Portland’s Jaydon Dureau scored his 22nd goal of the season in overtime at the Sandman Centre.

For the Blazers, this loss makes it harder for them to catch the Everett Silvertips for first place in the conference.
