Olivier Rodrigue stopped all 30 shots he faced for his first AHL shutout. Seth Griffith, one game after having a five-game point streak end, scored the lone goal late in the second period. The Condors improved to 5-1-1 against the Reign.

San Diego swept Ontario earlier in the week in a home-and-home series. Vinny Lettieri scored in overtime on Wednesday in a 2-1 victory. Lukas Dostal earned both wins, stopping 37 of 38 on the road. Josh Mahura had two assists in the second win.

COOKIN’ AT HOME

Bakersfield puts an AHL season-high 12-game point streak at home on the line tonight. During the stretch the Condors have collected 23 of 24 points (11-0-1) with the only blemish being a shootout loss to Ontario in which the Condors led by three in the waning minutes of regulation.
