BCIHL loses an extended family member in Grant Gilbertson

The BCIHL is grieving with the passing of Peninsula Panthers forward Grant Gilbertson, the younger brother of Okanagan Lakers forward Garett Gilbertson. 

"Our thoughts are with Garett and his family, and the players and staff of the Panthers at this incredibly difficult time. We've seen so many fond memories of Grant shared over the last week, it's clear his time in the hockey community and the friendships he built will have a lasting impact on many people in a such a positive way," says BCIHL President Chris Munshaw. 

The BCIHL extends its support to Grant's family and would like to share the GoFundMe page in support of Garett and Grant's mother Darcie Colgrave. All BCIHL members, organizers and fans are encouraged to make a contribution: https://www.gofundme.com/f/we-have-lost-a-loved-one
