GAME PREVIEW presented by Rodriguez & Associates
The Condors meet Calgary for the third of eight matchups this season.
LOOKING BACK
Dino Kambeitz scored his third of the season and the Condors were level 1-1 after one, but Coachella Valley pulled away with four second period goals en route to a 5-2 win on Saturday.
OLLIE OLLIE
Olivier Rodrigue came on in relief on Saturday and stopped 15 of 16. On the season, he has a 2.17 goals-against average and a .935 save percentage. Dating back to last season, in his last 17 appearances, the Quebec native has a .932 save percentage, stopping 606 of 650 shots.
RAPH PACES SCORING
Raphael Lavoie scored his team-leading eighth goal of the season on Saturday. He is second on the team in scoring with 11 points (8g-3a) on the season.
GRIFF CLOSES IN
Seth Griffith had an assist on Saturday, his 180th point as a Condor. He is eight shy of Josh Currie’s AHL mark of 188, though Griffith has played nearly 100 fewer games.
TOUGH MATCHUP
Calgary has dominated the series with the Condors, winning nine of 10 over the past two seasons. In fact, if you include the three-game sweep in the second round of the 2022 Calder Cup Playoffs, Calgary’s AHL affiliate has won 13 of 14 against Bakersfield.
THREE IS THE NUMBER
The Condors are 7-1-1 when scoring at least three goals this season.
ON THE OTHER SIDE
The Wranglers were swept in San Jose, but did get reigning AHL MVP Dustin Wolf back on loan this week. 2021 13th overall pick Matt Coronato is tied for the team lead with 20 points (8g-12a) in 16 games.
