For the second game in a row, Matt Oliver was the Aldergrove Kodiaks’ sole scorer in their second loss of the week. The Kodiaks fell 6-1 to the Abbotsford Pilots, Sept. 30 at MSA Arena.
The Kodiaks again outshot their opponents, 54 shots to the Pilots’ 34, but Pilots keeper Jacob Crawford stopped 53 of those shots.

Oliver’s goal was the final goal of the night coming at 18:07 of the third period, with assist from Kyle Bosko.
