CONDORS LATE PUSH NOT ENOUGH IN COLORADO
The Bakersfield Condors (3-3-1, 7pts) could not find a late equalizer and fell 2-1 to the Colorado Eagles (7-2-0, 14pts) on Wednesday.
Matt Tomkins got the start and made 11 saves in a scoreless first period. The Condors went 0/2 on the power play.
Colorado got on the board first with their fourth power play goal of the series at 9:21 of the second. The goal scorer was Alex Barre-Boulet who added a second later in the frame for a two-goal lead at the second intermission.
Cam Dineen (1st) cut the deficit in half from the left-wing circle off a dish from Viljami Marjala with under five minutes left in regulation. However, Colorado survived a late 6-on-5 push for the win.
Tomkins finished with 28 saves on 30 shots. Marjala’s assist was his fifth in seven games.
