After losing the first three games of their best-of-seven Western Hockey League playoff series, the Saskatoon Blades have rallied to force a Game 7.

The visiting Blades knocked off the Red Deer Rebels 5-3 on Sunday to force a winner-take-all showdown on Tuesday at SaskTel Centre in Saskatoon, Sask.

Egor Sidorov scored twice and added an assist for the Blades, while Trevor Wong, Jake Chiasson and Jayden Wiens netted singles. Brandon Lisowsky chipped in with two assists.

Jace Isley scored twice for the Rebels, who outshot the visitors 38-24 but had problems solving Saskatoon netminder Austin Elliott. Kai Uchacz netted a single for the Rebels, who trailed 2-0 after the first period and 4-2 heading into the third.

The victor will advance to the Eastern Conference final to play the winner of the Winnipeg Ice-Moose Jaw Warriors’ series. The Ice lead 3-2 with Game 6 being on Monday in Moose Jaw, Sask.

The Western Conference final, featuring the Seattle Thunderbirds and Kamloops Blazers, gets underway on Saturday in Seattle.
