Rebels Skewer Scorpions

The return of Mike and Gary seemed to put the spark back into the Rebels as the team achieved a decisive 7-1 victory over the 6th place Scorpions. Gino opened up the scoring just 16 seconds into the game. This was also his first goal as a Rebel. 25 seconds later Steve found the back of the net to give his team a 2-0 lead. Gino then got his second goal of the game and Chris L. added his first as a Rebel to close out a 4-0 lead going into the second half. Gary continued the Rebels' dominance adding two goals himself and Gino netted his hat trick goal shortly after. The Scorpions were able to finally break the shut out bid with just over 6 minutes remaining. Steve and Gino both had 4 point nights and Gary, Mike and Chris L. all came away with 3 points each.

Rebels Settle For Another Tie

The Rebels played one of their better games this season even though they had a very short bench. With just 6 forwards and 3 defensemen the Rebels were able to open the scoring early in the first off a goal by Steve. However, the Raging Bulls were able to answer back a few minutes later to tie the game up. The Rebels kept the pressure on though and Jason T. was able to find the back of the net with 39 second left in the first half to put his team back in front. The chances went back and forth for both teams in the second half but when the Bulls started playing desperation hockey near the end of the game the Rebels couldn't them off and allowed the tying goal with just 25 seconds remaining in the game. Overtime solved nothing so both teams went away with a point each.
