IN CASE YOU MISSED IT
Bakersfield’s modest two-game winning streak came to an end last Friday at the hands of the Wranglers, 3-1. The Condors started the game well, scoring at 1:34 of the first period, when C Joel Broda muscled a shot past G Travis Fullerton off a feed from D Erik Burgdoerfer. G Chet Pickard started for the first time since last Tuesday and made 25 saves on 27 shots. Bakersfield and Las Vegas were supposed to meet the following evening, but road closures due to weather prevented the Wranglers from making it to Bakersfield and the game was postponed.
