Playoffs begin Feb. 7 for the Assiniboia Sr. Rebels.

ASSINIBOIA — It’s dual Rebel playoff fever hitting Assiniboia. Not only have the Â鶹ÊÓƵern Jr. Be Rebels created a stir with multiple wins, but the continued success story of the Sr. Rebels has fans excited for a season that extends to playoffs.

The Notekeu Hockey League website shows the Assiniboia Senior Rebels still in top spot, as well as four players on their roster holding the top spots in leading scorers for the league.

The Senior Rebels have only three more games before playoffs begin. Jan. 31 is their last regular season home game while their last regular season game overall will be played in Coronach.

A team spokesperson tells the Assiniboia Times, “The Senior Rebels are winding down their regular season, with league playoffs beginning Feb. 7.”

As of Jan. 24, the Sr. Rebels have the best overall record in the league and are likely to hold on to that. This will secure them home-ice advantage throughout their playoff run.

The Notekeu Hockey League playoffs include a best-of-five quarter-final series, as well as a best-of-five semifinal series, should the Rebels advance.

The league final is a best-of-seven series, tentatively set to begin March 7, with the winners of the Wood River Division squaring off against the winner of the Soo Line Division.

After no season in COVID year 2020-21, the Sr. Rebels have won the league championship every season since then, and hopes are high to have another repeat title win.

The Sr. Rebels always appreciate fans in the stand and people can find out game times on social media and the video board at Â鶹ÊÓƵland Co-op Centre as well as on the Notekeu League website.
