KELOWNA - The Kelowna Rockets defeated the Red Deer Rebels 6-2 on Wednesday night at Prospera Place in Kelowna as the Rockets won its fifth straight game.

Six different players scored for Kelowna, who jumped out of the gates quickly and led from start to finish in improving to 12-2-0-2 on the season.

Captain Madison Bowey had a goal and an assist in leading the Rockets in a first star performance.

Rourke Chartier, Riley Stadel, Damon Severson, Carter Rigby and Zach Franko also scored for Kelowna, who returned from a four game road trip and continued its solid play, in the first of four straight games at Prospera Place.
