Hurricanes advance to second round with historic win over Rebels
LETHBRIDGE – What a difference a few days can make.
Coming off a 5-3 loss to the Red Deer Rebels on Mar. 30 – putting the Hurricanes in a three-one series hole – things looked bleak for Lethbridge. For the second straight year, they were facing the prospect of going out in the first round of the WHL playoffs at the hands of a lower ranked team.
But then something historic happened.
They dug in their heels, winning games five and six and setting up a deciding game seven – a comeback never achieved before in franchise history.
