Blades on the brink as Rebels again victorious in game three
With a win, the Red Deer Rebels would push the Saskatoon Blades to the brink of elimination on Tuesday at the Peavey Mart Centrium, and guess what… they did just that.
Red Deer beat Saskatoon 3-1, and now lead their conference semi-final three games to none, with a chance to put a bow on it Wednesday.
“We know we have to reset here and it’ll be a real hard game [tomorrow], but it’s nice to get the win,” said Head Coach Steve Konowalchuk post-game, touching on his team being behind for the first time this series.
“We’ve just got to enjoy this for a real quick little bit here, but be ready for tomorrow. Tonight, our guys kept playing. They didn’t ride the emotional roller coaster.”
