On a weekend full of stars, it was the one from Condorstown which shined as bright as ever.
After venturing to Laval, Quebec on Saturday from Calgary, Alberta, where the Condors just wrapped up their fifth winning week in a row, Condors winger Seth Griffith got to work at the AHL All-Star Classic.
With his family in attendance, Griffith would go on to score goals in the pass-and-score event and the breakaway relay.
On Sunday night, he helped the Western Conference to a win in the puck control relay, defeating Alex Nylander of the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins.
At the jewel event of the week, the two-time all-star was a driving force for the Pacific Division team. In three round robin games, Griffith scored four goals, linking up with the likes of Michael Carcone from the Tucson Roadrunners and T.J. Tynan from the Ontario Reign. The Pacific went unbeaten in the round robin at 2-0-1 to advance to the All-Star Classic Championship game.
In the extended 3-on-3 Championship content, it took seconds for the Ontario native to make a difference, scoring what would prove to be the only goal of the game. The game winner, in the All-Star Game, from Condorstown. And five goals to lead the tournament.
Though he wasn’t named all-star MVP for his terrific performance, that went to Dustin Wolf (Calgary) and Lukas Dostal (San Diego), he was happy he didn’t have to shoot on the co-MVPs. “We deal with them too much during the season.”
Griffith is excited about the second “half” of the season as the team pushes for playoff positioning, “looking forward to coming back and getting some wins.”

Riley is responsible for the growth and development of KG (US) Oilers Corp. and the Bakersfield Condors, the organization he has guided since its inception in 1998. Riley serves on the AHL’s Board of Governors, and various league committees. He was previously the vice chairman for the ECHL Board of Governors, and served on the league’s Executive Committee.
He was instrumental in negotiations in the January 2014 purchase of the Condors by the Edmonton Oilers and the team’s elevation to the American Hockey League (AHL) in 2015-16. Now in their seventh AHL season,
Riley joined the organization late in 1997, when they were known as the Bakersfield Fog, to execute the transition from the Bakersfield Convention Center to Bakersfield Centennial Garden (now known as Mechanics Bank Arena). 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 class-AA 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.
Keith Gretzky serves as the Condors General Manager and is an assistant general manager with the Edmonton Oilers, joining the organization in 2016. He previously worked as the director of amateur scouting for two NHL organizations in Boston (2013-16) and Phoenix (2007-11) in addition to being a scout for both franchises. Behind the bench, he was a head coach for the Asheville Smoke of the United Hockey League (UHL) from 1998-00 and the then Bakersfield Fog of the WCHL from 1995-98.
As a player, Gretzky played parts of five seasons in the International Hockey League (IHL) with Flint, Phoenix, and San Diego in addition to two seasons in the AHL with Rochester.
Colin Chaulk, 45, was named head coach on June 27, 2022. Chaulk, who became interim head coach on February 11, 2022, is the third head coach in the team’s American Hockey League history and ninth overall in the organization’s 25 seasons.
It is Chaulk’s first head coaching appointment in the AHL. He previously served as head coach in the ECHL for four seasons with Brampton and was an assistant with Belleville (AHL), Kalamazoo (ECHL), and Fort Wayne (ECHL). As a player, Chaulk played professionally for 15 seasons including a decade with the Fort Wayne Komets where his number 91 is retired. He won five league championships with the Komets and is third all-time in the organization’s 70+ year history in scoring
McCambridge, 48, brings a decade of American Hockey League coaching experience as both a head coach and assistant. He served as head coach of the Hartford Wolf Pack from 2017-19, and with the Winnipeg Jets top AHL team in St. John’s and Manitoba from 2011-2016. His time in St. John’s included a trip to the Calder Cup Finals in 2014 and the Eastern Conference Finals in 2012.
As a player, McCambridge played 11 seasons as a d-man in the AHL, IHL, and ECHL. He finished his playing career with the Alaska Aces (ECHL) and made the move behind the bench.
Green, 44, joins Bakersfield from the Winnipeg ICE of the WHL where he was an assistant coach since 2019. With the ICE, Green helped in the development of 2022 9th overall pick Matthew Savoie, 11th overall pick Conor Geekie, and third round pick Mikey Milne.
The Camrose, Alberta native enjoyed a 20-year playing career which included 341 NHL games with eight organizations. He played parts of three seasons with the Edmonton Oilers and finished his AHL career playing two seasons with the Oilers AHL affiliate in Oklahoma City. He was drafted in the 2nd round (30th overall) by the Los Angeles Kings in 1996.
Sylvain Rodrigue began working on a full-time basis with Condors goaltenders in 2018-19, but has been with the Oilers organization for the past nine seasons.
In 2020-21 under his guidance, Stuart Skinner made his NHL debut with the Edmonton Oilers and led the AHL in victories with 20.
He helped develop rookie goaltender Shane Starrett, who was named AHL Goaltender of the Month in February and received All-Rookie and Second All-Star Team selections from the AHL in 2018-19.
Kris Horn joined the Condors prior to the 2022-23 season from Army West Point where he had been the director of hockey operations since 2018. He was previously an assistant coach at SUNY-Brockport (16-18), a volunteer assistant coach at Union College (15-16), and an assistant coach at Hamilton College (14-15). Horn graduated with a Bachelor’s degree in marketing from Michigan State University in 2008 and holds a Master’s degree from Brockport with a concentration in athletic administration.

Dear Fans,
It is my pleasure to welcome you to the 2022-23 American Hockey League season, the latest chapter in a tradition of excellence that can be traced back to our league’s founding more than eight decades ago.
The AHL is as proud as ever of its role in developing nearly all of the players, coaches, executives, trainers, broadcasters and officials who you see throughout the National Hockey League today. Generations of our great fans have cheered on future superstars, Stanley Cup champions and Hockey Hall of Famers as they have come through the AHL.
This season is sure to be another exciting one as for the first time ever we drop the puck in 32 cities across North America, all vying to become the next Calder Cup champion.
On behalf of all of our teams, thank you for your continuing support of the AHL.
Sincerely,
Embarking on its 87th season of play in 2022-23, the American Hockey League is continuing a tradition of excellence that began in 1936 when the Canadian-American Hockey League joined with the International Hockey League to form what is today known as the AHL. Eight teams hit the ice that first season, representing Buffalo, Cleveland, New

Frank Calder, the National Hockey League’s president at the time, was instrumental in the forming of this new league, and his name would be given to its championship trophy. The first Calder Cup was won by the Syracuse Stars in 1937; the most
recent championship was captured by the Chicago Wolves last spring.
From those roots, the American Hockey League has grown into a 32-team, coast-to-coast league that provides fans with exciting, high-level professional hockey while preparing thousands of players, coaches, officials, executives, trainers, broadcasters and more for careers in the NHL.

For the past eight decades, the American Hockey League has been home to some of the greatest players in the history of our sport. In fact, more than 100 honored members of the Hockey Hall of Fame have been affiliated with the AHL during their careers . All-time greats like Johnny Bower, Toe Blake, Gump Worsley, Terry Sawchuk, Glenn Hall, Brad Park, Ken Dryden, and Brett Hull came through the AHL ranks and now find themselves enshrined in Toronto, and the coveted Calder Cup is inscribed with the names of legendary AHL alumni like Patrick Roy, Larry Robinson, Gerry Cheevers, Andy Bathgate, Tim Horton, Al Arbour, Emile Francis, Doug Harvey, and Billy Smith
At the start of the 2022-23 season, the National Hockey League featured 22 head coaches who were former AHL bench bosses, including including Jared Bednar of the 2022 Stanley Cup champion Colorado Avalanche.
Tampa Bay’s Jon Cooper, Washington’s Peter Laviolette, Pittsburgh’s Mike Sullivan, Nashville’s John Hynes, Toronto’s Sheldon Keefe, Vancouver’s Bruce Boudreau, Minnesota’s Dean Evason and Edmonton’s Jay Woodcroft are also among the current NHL coaches who spent time in the American Hockey League before making the jump.
