U15 Canadians Fall to Thunderbirds in Abbotsford on Saturday

Kayvon Salamatian scored his first goal of the season for the U15 AAA Greater Vancouver Canadians, but the team lost 7-1 on Saturday (Sept. 27) to the Fraser Valley Thunderbirds at the Abbotsford Centre. 

Misha Shmitsman picked up the lone assist on the goal.
