LocalSPORTS Border Bruins bring Rebels back to reality 3 Spokane Braves coach George Tallotti (left) had a few choice words for referee last Saturday night. Tallotti eventually said too much, as Postnikoff ejected him later in the game. News photo by Jonathan Green Aaron Postnikoff (right) during the Braves 4-3 loss to the Rebels Jonathan Green SPORTS REPORTER Thinking their pre-season success might warrant them a few extra minutes of sleep, the Castlegar Rebels received a rude awakening Wednesday. Playing on the road against the Grand Forks Border Bruins, the Rebels were snoozing at game time and it almost cost them. “We got off to a slow start,” coach Gary Sauer said. “They guys weren’t into the game.” Realizing that, the Bruins swarmed the vis- itors but only managed to put two past goalie Vaughan Welychko. “We were very lucky to be down 2-1 after the first,” Sauer said. “We were lucky not to be down by four. “They were all over us.” The Rebels alarm must have gone off be- tween periods, as Nino Da Costa and Darren Pottle added to Chris Babakaiff’s first period tally to give them a 3-2 lead after 40 minutes. But the Bruins awoke from their hiberna- tion in the third period, putting a pair behind Kyle Isberg, the go-ahead goal coming with Castlegar Rebels 1992/93 pre-season results GW tTF A P 7 #5 1 #1 #45 23 11 Rebels 4 Beaver Valley 0 Beaver Valley 1 Rebels 7 Rossland 5.

Sauer said the Rebels stormed the home team’s net in the final minutes, outplaying them even while shorthanded, but the equal- izer never came. “We just couldn’t muster one,” he said. “We were shorthanded for about the last three or four minutes and we outshot them but noth- ing went in.” Even though the loss ended the Rebels six- game undefeated streak, Sauer said some good came out of it. “The kids finished strong, which was a good sign since our next game isn’t until Oct. 9 against Nelson,” he said, adding that things are back to normal. ; “I guess it’s OK to have a little taste of de- eat.” With the exhibition season now over, Sauer said he and assistant Gordie Walker will fo- cus on who will suit up in Friday’s season open- er against Nelson. He said that it’s been tough, but the final cuts have all but been announced. “There’s going to be about four guys that we have to let go,” Sauer said. “It’s been evident as the games have been progressing how (those players were not) going to be able to withstand the season.” The season kicked off last night with three games, as Spokane visited Crescent Valley, Nelson hosted Beaver Valley and the expansion Rossland Wariors travelled to Grand Forks.
