Remy Spooner’s two-goal performance last night helped the Kimberley Dynamiters defeat the Creston Valley Thunder Cats and advance to the Kootenay International Junior Hockey League (KIJHL) Eddie Mountain Division Final against the Columbia Valley Rockies.

Leading 2-1, Spooner (Tristan Weill, Callan Valstar) netted the winner early into the third period. Weill collected two assists, while goalie Josh Hager only needed to stop 17 shots to earn the win, securing the series four games to two for the Nitros.

Brendan Smith saved 29 of 32 for the Thunder Cats, which got goals from Daniel O’Handley and Berkley Gross.

Neither team scored on the power-play (Kimberley – 0-for-4, Creston Valley – 0-for-5).
