The Bakersfield Condors host the San Antonio Rampage for the first of four meetings on the season. It is the first of eight straight home games for the Condors who play 13 of their next 15 games in Bakersfield. Last season, the Condors went 1-4-1-0 against the Rampage, but were 1-1-1 on home ice against San Antonio.

Bakersfield earned a split in San Jose over the weekend, bouncing back with a 4-3 shootout win on Saturday after suffering their first shutout of the season on Friday, 4-0. G Nick Ellis got the win in net on Saturday, stopping 41 of 44 shots in regulation/overtime and then all three shootout attempts. C Jujhar Khaira returned to the lineup and scored his fourth goal in three games.

San Antonio fell to the Ontario Reign on Sunday at home, 4-2. RW Mike Sislo and D Sam Jardine scored the goals for the Rampage while G Spencer Martin made 27 stops in the loss.

The Condors play their next eight games at home featuring six different Pacific Division foes. The only team in the division the Condors do not face during the homestand is the Ontario Reign. 13 of the next 15 games for the Condors are in Bakersfield before the team hits the road for five straight beginning on Dec. 10. Last season, the Condors were 17-13-1-1 on home ice.

Bakersfield’s 40 shots on net as a team was a season high… D Frankie Simonelli was recalled from Nofolk (ECHL) yesterday. He had two assists in seven games with the Admirals…
