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.

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.

Kootenay 5 Victoria 1 Game #57
Cranbrook, BC – Kootenay ICE forward Jaedon Descheneau had 1 goal and 2 assists in a 5-1 win over the Victoria Royals in WHL action on Wednesday.
The ICE (27-28-2-0) scored late in the first period with defenseman Tanner Muth’s wrist shot from the blueline beating the screened goalie high on the glove side.
In the second period the ICE made it 2-0 on rebound goal by Sam Reinhart who set a career with his 27th of the season.
In the third period the ICE scored 2 goals in less than a minute with Brock Montgomery and Jaedon Descheneau making it 4-0.
Victoria changed goalies with Coleman Vollrath replacing Patrick Polivka.
The Royals (32-20-1-3) scored a few minutes later with Steven Hodges scoring with a wrist shot high on the glove side.
With the teams skating 4-on-4 Luke Philp scored to make the game 5-1.
Jaedon Descheneau (3 games), Sam Reinhart (3 games) and Jagger Dirk (6 games) extended their point streaks.
The ICE have won 11 straight home games which is one off the Franchise Record. (FR 12 Nov 26/06-Jan 27/07)
The ICE will visit Brandon on Friday.
This was the 5th and final game for the ICE against a BC Division team and finished with 1-4-0-0 record.
This was the 1st ever appearance in Cranbrook for the Victoria Royals, formerly the Chilliwack Bruins, and only 5 players are on the roster from the last time they visited the ICE. (Tyler Stahl, Steven Hodges, Tim Traber, Jamie Crooks, Brandon Magee)
Jordan Fransoo (Brandon), Trent Lofthouse (Everett) and Alex Gogolev (Calgary) did play against the ICE in Cranbrook last season.
Kimberley native Issac Schacher played in his 1st WHL for the Royals (KIJHL Kimberley 45 GP 14-22-36 44pm).
From The Drive/B-104 …
A Kimberley product is going to make his W.H.L debut with the Victoria Royals in Cranbrook Wednesday night.
It's the first time the Royals have ever played Kootenay in Cranbrook and Isaac Schacher will suit up for the Royals against the team he's grown up watching.
"It's a dream come true, I've gone to so many Ice games growing up and the dream's always been to play in the W.H.L," said Schacher. "Watching them growing up and now having the opportunity to make my debut at home is pretty special."
The big blue liner was in discussions with the Penticton Vees of the B.C.H.L and also looked at the college route.
"I was flip-flopping going the Junior A, NCAA route and going to the W.H.L," said Schacher. "A few days ago Victoria came to me with the opportunity to sign; I took a couple days to think about it and sort it out with my family and decided it was the best opportunity for me, moving forward."
This season, Schacher is second on the Dynamiters in scoring and he explains what the Royals expect from him.
"They haven't spoken much about my role, it's more just coming to camp in shape next season and playing to the best of my abilities," said Schacher.
Cranbrook’s Colin Patterson will be inducted into the BC Hockey Hall of Fame later this summer.
Troy Murray, Kootenay’s 1st round pick in the 2012 Bantam Draft, will join the club for their 3-game road trip this weekend. (Sask AAA Midget Regina 36 GP 3-6-9 28pm)

A Kimberley product is going to make his W.H.L debut with the Victoria Royals in Cranbrook Wednesday night.
It's the first time the Royals have ever played Kootenay in Cranbrook and Isaac Schacher will suit up for the Royals against the team he's grown up watching.
"It's a dream come true, I've gone to so many Ice games growing up and the dream's always been to play in the W.H.L," said Schacher. "Watching them growing up and now having the opportunity to make my debut at home is pretty special."
The big blue liner was in discussions with the Penticton Vees of the B.C.H.L and also looked at the college route.
"I was flip-flopping going the Junior A, NCAA route and going to the W.H.L," said Schacher. "A few days ago Victoria came to me with the opportunity to sign; I took a couple days to think about it and sort it out with my family and decided it was the best opportunity for me, moving forward."
This season, Schacher is second on the Dynamiters in scoring and he explains what the Royals expect from him.
"They haven't spoken much about my role, it's more just coming to camp in shape next season and playing to the best of my abilities," said Schacher.
Cranbrook’s Colin Patterson will be inducted into the BC Hockey Hall of Fame later this summer.
Troy Murray, Kootenay’s 1st round pick in the 2012 Bantam Draft, will join the club for their 3-game road trip this weekend. (Sask AAA Midget Regina 36 GP 3-6-9 28pm)
