Wikipedia - Red Deer Rebels
The Red Deer Rebels are a Canadian major junior ice hockey team based in Red Deer, Alberta. The Rebels are members of the Western Hockey League and play home games at the Marchant Crane Centrium. The Rebels won the President's Cup and the Memorial Cup during the 2000–01 season.
History
In 1991, coach Terry Simpson and his brother were granted an expansion franchise in Red Deer. From a name-the-team contest, the top three ideas were Rebels, Renegades, and Centurions. The Rebels selected Mike McBain as their first player in the Bantam Draft. The Rebels' first game was on September 25, 1992, in Red Deer against the Prince Albert Raiders; the Rebels won 6–3.[]
In 1999, the Simpsons sold the team to Brent Sutter. With Sutter as coach and manager, the Rebels won three consecutive division and conference titles between 2000–01 and 2002–03. The period began with President's Cup and Memorial Cup championships in 2001, with Jeff Smith scoring the overtime winner against the Val-d'Or Foreurs in the Memorial Cup final.
Brent Sutter stepped aside as coach in 2007 and his brother, Brian Sutter, took over the team for the 2007–08 season. Brian was with the team for just one season before former captain Jesse Wallin took over. In 2012, Brent Sutter fired Wallin and took over as head coach for the first time since 2007.
The Rebels hosted team of the 2016 Memorial Cup tournament, thus making their second appearance at the national championship. The Rebels advanced to the semi-final, where they were eliminated by the Rouyn-Noranda Huskies.
In 2022, the team set a WHL record for the longest winning streak at the beginning of their season, opening with 15 straight wins.
