CAMPBELL RIVER STORM SIGN FORWARD FOSTER ARMSTRONG
CAMPBELL RIVER, BC — The Campbell River Storm of the Vancouver Island Junior Hockey League (VIJHL) are pleased to announce the signing of 2009-born forward Foster Armstrong of Terrace, BC.
Armstrong spent the 2025–26 season with the PCHA U17 Prep program competing in the Canadian Sport School Hockey League (CSSHL), developing his game against some of the top prep talent in the country.
“Foster is a big-bodied power forward type that has the potential to play at the next level,” said Head Coach and General Manager Lee Stone. “He’s not afraid to get physical in all three zones and plays inside the dots and gets to the dirty areas. He plays a heavy, heavy game.”
Stone emphasized the character traits that made Armstrong an attractive addition to the Storm.
“He exemplifies the type of player we want to work with. Hard working, driven, and plays the game a bit old school. He’s made efforts to graduate early which shows his focus on playing Collegiate Hockey in the future. We are excited to work with Foster to help him take his game to the next level!”
Armstrong expressed confidence that Campbell River is the right fit for the next stage of his development.
“I signed with the Campbell River Storm because I felt it was the best place for me to continue developing as a player,” said Armstrong. “I’m looking forward to playing in front of the fans, being part of the community, and building strong relationships with my teammates and coaches.”
The Terrace native is eager to bring his physical brand of hockey to Rod Brind’Amour Arena.
“Fans can expect a hardworking, competitive player who’s willing to be gritty. I like to be strong on the puck, drive the net, create offensive chances, and do whatever it takes to help the team win,” said Armstrong.
