TONIGHT
The Bakersfield Condors cap off a three-in-three weekend against VsSTK - red

Stockton, their third opponent of the weekend. It is the second meeting of nine on the season between the two Highway 99 rivals with Stockton holding the early series lead after knocking off Bakersfield, 5-4, on October 25. The Thunder quickly return after today for an early start on Thursday in Condorstown at 10:30 a.m.

IN CASE YOU MISSED IT
Bakersfield ended an eight-game winless skid with a 2-1 win over the Las Vegas Wranglers last night at Rabobank Arena. The Condors raced out a to 2-0 lead after the opening 20 minutes thanks to tallies from C Joel Broda and RW Jordan Knackstedt. A late power-play goal from the Wranglers made things interesting, but 20 stops from G Andy Chiodo held up for the victory.

Stockton had last night off after splitting a Wednesday-Friday series in Loveland against the Eagles. After dropping Wednesday’s contest, the Thunder responded with a 3-2 overtime win on Friday. F Andrew Clark notched the game-winner at 2:20 of the extra session and made a winner of G Brian Foster who made 36 saves.
