GAME PREVIEW

The Bakersfield Condors and Colorado Eagles play game six of an eight-game season series. Colorado has won three straight in the series. It is the second matchup in Bakersfield with two more slated over the team’s final 20 games.

IN CASE YOU MISSED IT
The Condors led after the first and second in Ontario on Wednesday, but dropped a 4-2 decision against the Reign. RW Josh Currie had two points (1g-1a) and LW Joe Gambardella scored his 11th of the season. The recently recalled C Markus Granlund assisted on both goals as that line connected for all six of the team’s points on the night.

Colorado fell 5-2 at home to Tucson on Saturday. D Jacob MacDonald scored his 11th of the season which leads all d-men in scoring. G Hunter Miska took the loss, stopping 24 of 29 against the division leaders.

CURRIE ON 99
RW Josh Currie scored his 99th AHL goal on Wednesday in Ontario. It was also his 20th of the season. He is the first Condors AHL player to notch 20 goals in four consecutive seasons and just the third Condors player in 22 years to accomplish the feat. Paul Willett (1999-2003) and Paul Rosebush (2001-05) are the others to have four seasons with 20 or more goals.
