Your Red Deer Rebels start the new week in first place in the WHL Central Division and second overall in the Eastern Conference after two more home triumphs during Thanksgiving Long Weekend to run their win streak to four games!
Friday, October 9 – Seven different goal scorers powered the Rebels to an exciting 8-5 win over the visiting Calgary Hitmen at the Marchant Crane Centrium. Red Deer fell behind 2-0 in the first period before scoring eight of the game’s next 11 goals. Defenceman Jiri Kamas had a goal and three assists for his first career four-point game. Jiri Kamas and Poul Andersen each had a goal and two assists. Patrick Sopiarz scored twice while Beckett Hamilton had two assists.
Monday, October 12 – Matthew Kondro made 34 saves as the Rebels blanked the visiting Edmonton Oil Kings 4-0 in the Thanksgiving Matinee game at the Marchant Crane Centrium. Cameron Kuzma scored the game-winner just 92 seconds into the first period. Poul Andersen scored his league-leading ninth goal of the season. Captain Beckett Hamilton had a goal and an assist. Kalder Varga scored in his return to the lineup. It’s the first time the Rebels have defeated the Oil Kings since February 14, 2025, snapping an 11-game winless drought versus their northern rivals.
