WEEK IN REVIEW

Stop us if you’ve heard this one… but the Rebels enter the final week of the regular season in a familiar, but intense spot… in eighth place in the WHL Eastern Conference, one point ahead of the Moose Jaw Warriors. The Rebels have three games remaining on the docket while the Warriors have two.

The Rebels kept themselves in the fight with points in all four games of their latest homestand.

March 14 – It was a wild one at the Marchant Crane Centrium as the Calgary Hitmen edged the Rebels 6-5 in overtime. Kalder Varga led the Rebels’ attack with his first career hat trick. Cameron Kuzma piled up a career high four points (1 goal, 3 assists).

March 13 – Beckett Hamilton came through with his second overtime goal of the season to lift the Rebels to a 3-2 win over the Brandon Wheat Kings at the Marchant Crane Centrium. Matej Mikes scored twice for Red Deer in period two, including once shorthanded. Matthew Kondro was once again superb in a 39-save first-star performance.
