Wheat Kings reap 4-0 win over Rebels
The Red Deer Rebels came up empty Wednesday night at the Centrium as they were blanked 4-0 by the visiting Brandon Wheat Kings.
It’s the second time the Rebels have been shutout this season with the other being a 6-0 loss on Dec. 28 to Vancouver.
“I didn’t think we played very well, we didn’t have enough guys play well for us tonight,” said Rebels GM/head coach Brent Sutter. “That’s too bad. It was a big game, which they all are as this time of the year, but just too many mistakes.”
Brandon opened the scoring midway through the opening period when Ty Thorpe stole the puck from Hunter Donohoe behind the Rebels net before sliding it past Ethan Anders for his first WHL goal.
