The Alberni Valley Bulldogs from Port Alberni, British Columbia, secured a massive 8-0 shutout victory against the Surrey Eagles on March 20, 2026. The lopsided game took place at the South Surrey Arena and stands as the team’s most dominant performance in their recent stretch of games.
Head Coach Joe Martin is currently in his seventh season leading the team, having previously guided them to a league championship final in 2023. This recent win follows a period of mixed results for the club, which included a close overtime victory against Powell River and a win at home against Prince George earlier in the month.
The team is led on the ice by captain Caden Tremblay, a 20-year-old defenseman who is the only player on the roster originally from Port Alberni. Goaltender Derik Brouillard helped secure the shutout in the 1,242-seat arena during the road trip.
Local fans will have the chance to cheer for the team in person when they return to Weyerhaeuser Arena, which is often called the Dawg Pound. Upcoming home games in Port Alberni are set for March 27, 2026, and March 28, 2026, as the regular season comes to a close.
