Condors vs. Reign – Teddy Bear Toss – TONIGHT!!!

TONIGHT
The Condors and Reign meet for the third time on the season, with the teams splitting the first two meetings (both of which came in Ontario). Bakersfield is 24-15-3 all-time against the Reign organization, including a dominant 16-4-2 record on home ice. 

IN CASE YOU MISSED IT
The Condors held leads of 2-0 and 3-2 in the third period on Wednesday against the Alaska Aces, but ultimately fell in overtime 4-3. C Mathew Sisca tallied twice and LW Matt Marquardt lit the lamp for the Condors, while G Matt Keetley made 33 saves in the loss. It was the first loss for Bakersfield when leading after two vs ONTperiods all season.

The Reign have lost two in a row, both against Stockton, and sit three points ahead of the Condors in the Pacific Division Standings. They have lost three of their last four games. The Reign host the Condors tomorrow to wrap up this home-and-home series.

GETTING “THE GOAL” ON TEDDY BEAR TOSS NIGHT
In Condors history, only one player has scored the teddy bear-launching goal more than once: Paul Rosebush in 2002-03 and 2003-04. Twice the game has gone to the third period before “the goal” was scored, including last season, when Vyacheslav Trukhno ended the longest scoreless drought on TBT Night, with 9:38 left in the game. Eight out of the 12 TBT games saw the big moment come during the first period, and Rosebush’s goal in 2002-03 came a record 4:59 into the contest.
