Impressive Vipers season ends with provincial silver medal
It was a heartbreaking end to a fantastic season for the Red Deer Vipers over the weekend.
Representing the Heritage Junior ‘B’ Hockey League at the Hockey Alberta Provincial Championships in Fort St. John, the Vipers slithered through the tournament before being stumped in the final.
Sunday afternoon, the Vipers fell 5-1 to the Wainwright Bisons 5-1, skating away with a silver medal.
Head Coach JD Morrical says winning the league title and then going to provincials took quite the physical toll on the team.
