Rebels Beat Razorbacks In OT For 1st Win In Round Robin Playoffs

The Rebels beat the Razorbacks for the 3rd straight time this season winning 2-1 in sudden death overtime to give them their first win of the playoffs. The reffing in this game was a joke with 32 penalty minutes being called against the Rebels and 16 against the Razorbacks. Crazy calls were made that haven't been made all season such as Steve getting two minutes for removing his helmet while sitting on the bench, Kyle getting called for charging when a Razorback hit him while he had possession of the ball and Dustin getting called called for tapping the goalie's stick before the whistle blew. With all of theses questionable calls the Rebels were on the penalty kill for the majority of the game, sometimes even two men down. Through all of this though the Rebels did not allow a single goal while the Razorbacks were on the powerplay. Our defense played well and Nestor played even better to make sure nothing got through. With an early goal in the beginning of the fist period and a late goal near the end of the second the teams were all tied up and headed to overtime. There were chances back and forth but Kyle was able to finish it by scoring with 1:46 left in the first overtime period. This was his second goal of the game which was impressive considering he played probably around 30 minutes of the 48 minute game and was still able to play after he rolled his ankle and could barely walk in the second period. Nest up is the Hi-Tech Titans which who the Rebels are 0 and 2 against... but that 0 will soon change.
