Buccaneers stun Storm in 3-2 victory
NANAIMO — A third period surge lifted the Buccaneers (21-6-0-1) over the Campbell River Storm Thursday night at the Nanaimo Ice Centre.
Billy Walters scored the eventual game-winning goal on a breakaway at the 8:19 mark of the third period to help the Bucs climb within one point of the Storm (21-5-2-0) for the VIJHL’s North Division lead.
Bucs head coach Curtis Toneff said it was a complete team effort, with several players stepping up.
“Guys like Clayton Peace, Billy Walters I thought got his mojo back a little bit and Derek Krall was the Derek Krall we saw for the first two-and-a-half months.”
