WEEK IN REVIEW

After splitting a pair of home games last weekend, the Rebels kick off the final month of the regular season with a busy four-game week.

March 1 - Owen DeWitt tipped home the game winning goal late in period two as the Rebels downed the visiting Swift Current Broncos 4-2 at the Marchant Crane Centrium. Aleksey Chichkin, Kalder Varga, and Talon Brigley also scored. Matthew Kondro made 19 saves for his 15 th win of the season. Red Deer outshot Swift Current 33-21 and were 0-for-4 on power plays while the Broncos were 0-for-5.

February 27 - An opening minute goal by the Oil Kings stood up as the game winner in a 2-0 win over the Rebels at the Marchant Crane Centrium. Red Deer outshot Edmonton 34-23 but were unable to cash in on their power play opportunities, going 0-for-7 on the night.

Once again, the Rebels start the week in eighth place in the Eastern Conference, one point ahead of the Moose Jaw Warriors. The Rebels have game games at-hand on the Warriors.
