FEATURE STORY GAME 68 ryan Holt | bakersfield condors

The end of the regular season is upon us.

Game 68. A season which was pushed back at the start, delayed in the middle, postponed on occasion, and extended to the final day of April. But, it’s here. Game 68.

Could I have told you that in mid-December? Don’t think so. The team was basically in the basement of the division, dealing with a majority of the team contracting COVID, and mired in a rut.

Then the new year hit and the team rallied. The team picked up points in 17 For some, this is the end of the road. Their of 18 games stretching to February 11. bags are packed, rooms are cleared out, They won 13 of those games in regulaand flight tickets home are booked. tion and found themselves in the third spot in the Pacific Division.

But, not the Condors. Not this group.

Easy right?

February 11 also brought significant changes. Jay Woodcroft and Dave Manson departed town to lead the turnaround in Edmonton and Colin Chaulk was thrust into the head coaching seat.

WATCH EVERY Surely the team mustGAME haveLIVE wavered, THEAHL.COM/AHLTV slipped, made excuses…

Nope.

FEATURE STORY They won that night over Henderson and picked up a .600 points percentage over the final three months of the season. With a defensive corps riddled with injuries and key forwards out of the lineup for extended periods of time, the team soldiered on to clinch another Calder Cup Playoffs berth.

That includes Seth Griffith who was named to the AHL Second All-Star Team.

His numbers were expected. Undrafted second-year pro James Hamblin scored 20 too and showed what earning opportunity looks like.

Next week the team will enter the Calder Cup Playoffs. And eventually, their bags will be packed, their rooms cleaned, and flight tickets home.

Five different goaltenders have picked up wins for the team. Most notably, Stuart Skinner going past 20 wins for the second straight season.

But Game 68 isn’t the end … it’s just the beginning.

Defensively, the team has seen the growth of Vinny Desharnais, who will finish as the league leader in plus/minus.

First-rounder Philip Broberg, who battled through injury to score his first NHL goal this week. And the upstart Yanni Kaldis, who has quarterbacked the power play AND played forward this season. Emblematic of just the type of team the Condors are.

Up front has seen four different 20-goal scorers for the first time in team history.

With a new name and a new arena in 1998, the Condors were named the West Coast Hockey League Organization of the Year.

The Keokuk, Iowa, native previously served as the Executive Director of the Mobile (AL) BayBears Baseball Club, the classAA Southern League affiliate of the San Diego Padres, and was integral in the construction of Hank Aaron Stadium.

Riley is a graduate of Nebraska Wesleyan University with a degree in communications.

He earned a master’s degree in sport management from the United States Sports Academy in Daphne, Alabama.

He went to on to serve as head coach of the Atlanta Thrashers for two seasons and an assistant coach with the Phoenix Coyotes for two seasons, before returning to lead the Wolves in 2013 to capture another division title in 2013-14. His last coaching position was as an assistant with the Minnesota Wild from 2016-18.

Overall, Anderson ranks fifth in AHL history with 424 victories and is seventh with 788 games behind the bench over 10 seasons in the AHL as a head coach.

Colby Cave Memorial Fund The Cave Family and the Edmonton Oilers have created the Colby Cave Memorial Fund to carry on the memory and legacy of Oilers forward Colby Cave who passed away suddenly and tragically on April 11, 2020.

Proceeds from the fund will go toward community programs with an emphasis on mental health initiatives and providing access to sports for underprivileged children.

Cave made a lasting impact both on and off the ice with the Edmonton Oilers and the AHL's Bakersfield Condors, and before that with the Boston Bruins organization and the WHL's Swift Current Broncos. Cave was a consummate professional, well-respected by teammates and opponents alike. He was also a committed and positive member of the communities in which he played, eagerly volunteering for charitable initiatives and always stopping to say hi to fans.

Donations to the Colby Cave Memorial Fund are being accepted by the Edmonton Oilers Community Foundation in Colby's memory. click to donate now

Dear Fans, It is my pleasure to welcome you to the 2021-22 American Hockey League season, the latest chapter in a tradition of excellence that can be traced back more than eight decades.

SCOTT HOWSON PRESIDENT & CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER AMERICAN HOCKEY LEAGUE

We’re thrilled to have 31 teams back on the ice this fall, and we’re especially excited to have our passionate fans back to cheer on our players inside arenas across North America. Our clubs remain dedicated to ensuring everyone’s health and safety, allowing us to continue our role as the top development league for nearly all of the players, coaches, executives, trainers, broadcasters and officials in the National Hockey League today.

On behalf of all of our teams across the United States and Canada, thank you for your continuing support of the AHL, and I will see you at the rink.

Sincerely,

SCOTT HOWSON PRESIDENT & CEO | AMERICAN HOCKEY LEAGUE
