Red Deer Rebels

The Red Deer Rebels play in the Central Division of the Eastern Conference and are based out of Red Deer, AB.  They only gave up 231 goals, which is respectable, but the reason they missed the playoffs last season was because they registered a Conference worst 204 goals.  John Persson led the team in scoring with 58 points, and the team was clearly hurt by 2011 first overall pick Ryan Nugent-Hopkins sticking onto the Edmonton Oilers squad for a full season.  Besides Nugent-Hopkins, other NHL alumni include Cam Ward and Brandon Sutter.
