The Red Deer Rebels are finally set to take on a team not named the Edmonton Oil Kings.
After dropping six straight to their dominant rivals from the north, the Rebels take on the Lethbridge Hurricanes this weekend starting tonight at the Westerner Park Centrium (7 p.m. on 106.7 REWIND Radio).
The Rebels were to be playing the Calgary Hitmen this weekend, but a positive COVID-19 test with a player within the Hitmen team cohort has led to their activities being suspended.
When it comes to their tough stretch versus Edmonton in which they outscored 33-7, Rebels Assistant Coach Ryan Colville says there were plenty of takeaways for his young team.
