The struggling Castlegar Rebels bounced back from a sloppy, dismal Friday loss to Kimberley with a strong effort against the Princeton Posse.
Unfortunately, an own-goal in the second overtime frame clinched the 5-4 victory for the visitors.
Frustration boiled over for the Rebels as Colby Winia cross checked a celebrating Posse player and received a match penalty.
He’ll be suspended at least a game for the infraction and will join defender Dallas Goodwin who is sitting as a result of an abuse of official penalty.
With the loss, the Rebels have 5 points through 11 games in the schedule – two points back of Grand Forks for fourth in the Neil Murdoch division.
