Rebels Acquire Forward Cameron Hausinger From The Blades
By Sheldon Spackman
Not surprising to hear Rebels Owner and GM Brent Sutter is shaking up the roster a bit.
The team announced on Friday that they’ve acquired 17 year old forward Cameron Hausinger from the Saskatoon Blades in exchange for a seventh round selection in the 2017 WHL Bantam Draft and a fifth round pick in 2018.
Hausinger is 5’10, 188 pounds and in his second season in the WHL. He was a seventh round pick of the Blades in the 2014 WHL Bantam Draft. So far this season, the Anchorage, Alaska native has 3 assists in 20 games.

End of an era for Red Deer Minor baseball Braves

From Red Deer Minor Baseball Board of Directors
Following many discussions within the Red Deer community, the baseball community, our association members, as well as our board of directors we have made the decision to move forward with rebranding our teams, currently known as the Braves. For our association the Braves name symbolized warrior strength, bravery and resilience, all qualities we were proud to align with; and although the initial moniker of our teams was never intended to carry a derogatory or disrespectful connotation, for some, it has. The topic of our rebrand has been polarizing and arguments both for and against have been passionately presented. We have made the decision to move forward in the direction we feel is best for our association.
In alignment with the membership majority vote, the Red Deer Minor Baseball Board of Directors is excited to announce that we will now be known as the Red Deer Rangers.
The Red Deer Rangers will retain our current navy and crimson colors and will not adopt the colors or logo of the MLB, NHL, or any other Rangers franchise. We are looking forward to forging our own identity and embracing our own look.
As you can appreciate this is a complex initiative that will take time. We will remain the Braves for the 2024 season and aim to have our rebrand complete for the 2025 season.
All participants that submitted the Rangers name during our rebranding poll, will be entered into a draw to receive the first Red Deer Rangers jersey.
We hope you will join us in celebrating this positive endeavor as we create a new inclusive legacy for our association that all can be proud of.
