The Saskatoon Blades are proving to be a pesky opponent that won’t go away against the Red Deer Rebels.
The Saskatoon Blades are proving to be a pesky opponent that won’t go away against the Red Deer Rebels.
And they could be mounting a chance to chase some junior hockey history in the process.
After falling behind 0-3 in their best-of-seven playoff series, the Blades have won two straight as the series shifts to Alberta for game six.
Following a third-period comeback in game four, the Blades returned to Sasktel Centre for game five.
And the goal light would be busy as both teams combined for five goals in the first period.
Tanner Molendyk got Saskatoon on the board first with his second of the playoffs at 5:39 of the first period.
But just over five minutes later, the Rebels would tie it up with an unassisted marker from Kai Uchacz.
