Rebels This Week
Home from the U.S.A.
It certainly was not the road trip the Red Deer Rebels wanted to have as the club went winless (0-4-0-2) in six games through the U.S. Division. The good news for the Rebels is they remain in a playoff spot in the WHL Eastern Conference as of Monday and have a full week of preparation available to prepare for their next games.
Upcoming
The Rebels return to the Peavey Mart Centrium this Saturday, November 23 at 7 p.m. to battle the Victoria Royals. It’s also Brandt Ag Appreciation Night. Tickets for all Rebels home games are available through Tickets Alberta. Details about group packages can be found at reddeerrebels.com. This Sunday, November 24, the Rebels visit the Edmonton Oil Kings for a 4 p.m. matinee at Rogers Place.

Called to the Hall
On November 8, Rebels Owner/President/General Manager Brent Sutter was announced as the 16th inductee into the New York Islanders Hall of Fame.

In 694 games, Sutter racked up 610 points (287 goals and 323 assists), which is sixth all-time in franchise history, and won the Stanley Cup in 1982 and 1983 with the Islanders.
