Red Deer Rebels News Release
Game On! The Red Deer Rebels are officially underway with their 33rd season in the Western Hockey League!
Opening Night The effort Saturday night was one the Red Deer Rebels hope to copy throughout their 2024-25 Western Hockey League season. The end result not so much as the Red Deer Advocate Home Opener at the Peavey Mart Centrium saw the Rebels fall 2-1 in overtime to the visiting Lethbridge Hurricanes. Matteo Fabrizi scored Red Deer's opening goal of the season. The Rebels outshot Lethbridge 31-14 on the night.
Tiger Tales Next up for the Rebels is three-straight games versus the Medicine Hat Tigers, the top-ranked team in the Canadian Hockey League. The Rebels host the Tigers on Friday, Sept. 27 at the Peavey Mart Centrium before visiting Medicine Hat the following night, Saturday, Sept. 28, for a 7 p.m. tilt at Co-op Place. This weekend marks the first meetings between the Rebels and Tigers since Red Deer eliminated Medicine Hat in five games in round one of last season's playoffs.
Welcome to The Dub! Congratulations to Rebels forwards Cohen Poulin and Nolan Schmidt, who each played their first game in the Western Hockey League last Saturday versus Lethbridge.
