October 19, 2012, Victoria, BC - Defenceman Jake Stolz leaps into the arms of goaltender Evan Roch after his Victoria Cougars won a thrilling 3-2 contest over the Saanich Braves in Vancouver Island Junior B Hockey League action Friday at Pearkes Arena.

Why I Chose This Photo: Championship winning game? No. Simply a big intense contest between the top 2 teams in BC Jr. B hockey. The Cougars had not lost at all to this point in the season. and this was the closest game they had played as it was the first time they met each other this season. The intensity between these two rivals was huge. The Cougar's scored late to win and this celebration photo shows how important the win was, even though it was an early season game.
