  1. Matt kowalski is a goal scorer. I did say that and guess what against Chilliwack he scores two goals tonight. Once he becomes even more familiar with his mates he I am sure will have a break out year with lots of goals under his belt. Good for you Matt. Keep up the good play mate. GO.Vipers GO.
