Hurricanes win 7-6 thriller over Rebels with last-minute goal
The Red Deer Rebels have gotten into the habit of playing in exciting games at the Westerner Park Centrium of late, and Wednesday night was no exception.
The Rebels went toe to toe with the high flying Lethbridge Hurricanes but came up on the short end of a 7-6 decision.
The Hurricanes look an early lead just over five minutes into the first period as Dylan Cozens won a draw that ended up on the sick of Alex Cotton, who found the back of the net past Rebels goalie Byron Fancy.
The Rebels tied the game up five minutes later when Josh Tarzwell, with a great individual effort, beat Cotton one-on-one and then beat Hurricanes goaltender Carl Tetachuk with a backhand shot for his 22nd goal of the year.
