Hot goaltending stymies Rebels’ much improved effort
It was a much stronger performance by the Red Deer Rebels on Saturday night, however goals and ultimately points evaded them when all was said and done.
Moose Jaw scored twice in the second period en route to a 2-1 victory handing the Rebels their fifth loss in a row, and seventh in their last eight home games.
“You can’t look at our effort and say it wasn’t great. We played hard and don’t get rewarded, but that’s just the way the hockey gods work,” head coach Brent Sutter said post-game.
“I told the kids they’ll never have a problem with me if they work that hard.”
