A post-game media scrum with Kimberley Dynamiters forward Brandt Bertoia following his team's 1-0 victory over the Beaver Valley Nitehawks in Game Four of the Kootenay Conference Finals. The win forced a Game 5 in the best of five series and handed the Nitehawks their very first shutout loss of the ENTIRE 2016-17 season. The Nitros went on to lose the series but were the only team during the playoff run to hand BV losses, they swept each of their three other rounds. Other reporters in the scrum were Josh Lockhart and Devin Howard.

***what happens towards the end of this interview is one of my absolute favourite moments from the entire season. It made us all burst out laughing and will be a very happy memory I keep with me always of my special time covering the KIJHL's Kimberley Dynamiters.
