Tristan Jones scored his second of the game with just 53 seconds remaining as Castlegar squeaked out a 5-4 win over Sicamous.
The game served as a triumphant return to action for Rebels netminder Curt Doyle as he had been sidelined for months with a significant injury.
The Rebels have now won three straight games and sit only five points back of Grand Forks for the final playoff spot – with two games in hand.
Castlegar will hope to see newly acquired forward Darby Berg tonight when they visit Nelson – puck drop at 7.
