Rebels This Week: ‘Moving On’ from tough week

Oct 15, 2024 | 4:33 PM

Moving On

It was a far less than ideal week for the Rebels as they dropped all three games they played.

Oct 8 – The Rebels suffered their first regulation loss of the season 5-2 to the Vancouver Giants at the Peavey Mart Centrium. The Giants scored three power play goals in the first period to build a lead they wouldn’t relinquish. Cohen Poulin and Hunter Mayo scored for Red Deer. Chase Wutzke made 28 saves.

Oct 9 – The Medicine Hat Tigers defeated the Rebels for the first time in four tries this season, 3-0 at Co-op Place. Medicine Hat scored once in period two and twice in period three, including a late empty netter. Chase Wutzke made 27 saves on the night.

Oct 12 – Another tough first period proved too much for the Rebels to overcome in a 5-1 loss to the Edmonton Oil Kings at Rogers Place. Edmonton led 3-0 after period one. Hunter Mayo scored Red Deer’s lone goal early in period three.
