The Rebels got a clutch win in overtime in a 6-5 win over the Rash. Dean opened the scoring midway through the first half and the Rebels were up 3-1 at the end of the first half. The Rash still fought back with their short bench to manage a back and forth second half leading into another game with extra time. With a powerplay late in OT for the Rebels, Dustin wound up from the red line to sink the winner past the Rash goaltender. Dustin with his most spectular game of the season, notched 2 goals and 1 assist including the overtime winner, while Nestor again made 30 saves to keep us in the game. With a all around team effort 10 different Rebels walked out with points in the game. The Rebels locked up 4th spot for themselves, and remain just 3 points from 1st place.

Rebels Win in Midnight Shooutout
Write up by Cody:
After leaving the arena after 12:30 in the morning, the Rebels came out with a 4-3 shootout win over the Thunder. The thunder came out hard in the first half having only 2 spares and keeping the Rebels scoreless through 25:00 min. Throughout the second half, the Thunder lost their thunder and gave up 3 goals, but bounced back with 2 goals of their own to tie it back up. Kevin came up with another multi-point night scoring a goal and an assist, although the story would have to be the goaltending. Nestor once again came up big, especially in the shootout allowing zero out of 6 shots. Scott came up big after 6 other Rebels shot, scoring the lone shootout goal for the big win. The win puts the team at a 4-way tie for 4th place in the division, and only 3 points from the top spot.
