Red Deer 6 Kootenay 4 Game #66
Red Deer, Alb – The Red Deer Rebels scored 4 second period goal in a 6-4 win over the Kootenay ICE in WHL action on Tuesday.
The Rebels (37-24-4-2) opened the scoring off a faceoff win in the ICE zone and Matt Bellerive scored on a slap shot that beat the screened goalie on the glove side.
23 seconds later the ICE (33-31-2-0) tied the game with Austin Vetterl and Sam Reinhart finding a wide open Jaedon Descheneau in the middle slot and his wrist shot beat the goalie on the stick side.
In the second period the Rebels scored on the first shift as Rhyse Dieno was stopped on a breakaway but Brooks Maxwell followed to find the puck lying on the goal line.
Less than 2 minutes later Levi Cable tied the game after creating a turnover at their blueline and scored with low wrist shot on the stick side.
The Rebels regained the lead on the powerplay with Tyson Ness alone in the slot for a wrist shot high on the glove side.
The ICE tied the game again on a powerplay point shot by Joey Leach.
39 seconds later Red Deer made it 4-3 with Mathew Dumba joining the rush.
Rebels ended the period with a 2-goal lead on a deflection by Tyson Ness.
Ness is the 30th opposition player to have a multi-goal game against the ICE.
The ICE changed goalies to start the third period with Wyatt Hoflin replacing Mackenzie Skapski.
Hoflin’s last game was January 30th in Edmonton.
The Rebels added to their lead with Cody Thiel’s slap shot going of the goalie’s shoulder into the net.
The ICE scored another powerplay goal with Jaedon Descheneau deking the goalie to the ground and tucked it into the net.
Jaedon Descheneau (3 games) and Joey Leach (4 games) extended their point streaks.
The ICE will visit Tri City on Friday.

Kootenay 4 Medicine Hat 2
Cranbrook, BC – Kootenay ICE Captain Joey Leach had 2 assists in a 4-2 win over the Medicine Hat Tigers in WHL action on Saturday.
The ICE (33-30-2-0) opened the scoring in the first period on a rebound goal by Sam Reinhart off a point shot by Jagger Dirk.
The game was delayed for 4 minutes midway through the period as a Flash Mob broke out in the building with over 1,400 school kids in the building for School Spirit Night.
Late in the period Levi Cable created a 2-on-1 and fed a wide open Luke Philp near the crease for a redirection goal to make it 2-0.
Early in the second the Tigers (33-30-2-1) scored on the powerplay with Boston Leier getting to the middle slot for wrist shot low on the stick side.
Midway through the period the ICE made it 3-1 as Austin Vetterl found a wide open Tanner Faith at the blueline and he scored with a wrist shot low on the stick side.
Late in the third period the Tigers pulled their goalie and got a deflection goal from Miles Koules.
The Tigers pulled their goalie again and Levi Cable scored into the empty net.
The crowd was the biggest of the season.
The ICE will visit Red Deer on Tuesday.
ICE Scratch – Matt Thomas.
