FEATURE STORY

SURGING CONFIDENCE LEADS TO TULLIO’S SUCCESS

TColin Chaulk knows that to have success in the AHL, everyone “has to bring something to the party.” And so far, the second half of the season has been Ty Tullio’s coming out party.

Just 20 years old and drafted in the fifth round of the 2020 NHL Draft, Tullio is fourth on the Condors in scoring and has come alive post-Christmas break. After eight points in his first 24 games of the season, the winger has 16 points (8g-8a) in 18 games since January 12.

“I’ve tried over the course of the season to earn the coach’s trust and earning the team’s trust at the same time,” Tullio said. “It was an up and down start to the year, but coming back after Christmas I think I’ve really found my game and hit my stride. I come to the rink looking to improve every day and the results have showed that. Overall, being more confident has made me a better player.”

Tullio was part of a remarkable, history-making night in San Diego on February 19 as he recorded his first professional hat trick as part of a four-point night. He was joined by teammate Raphael Lavoie’s four-goal night as the two combined for seven of the team’s eight goals and became the first Condors to record hat tricks in the same game.

“It was just my second hat trick of my career even going back to juniors,” he said. “Having another guy score four goals and to share it was awesome.”

Chaulk has seen Tullio’s game taking off as part of a larger surge for the Condors who started 2023 with a .675 points

percentage through the first 20 games. “He’s taken a really big step. Ty is a young player, who was a big time scorer in junior and had to reinvent himself here,” Chaulk said. “He had to understand how to play a harder and heavier game and he’s worked and earned everything that he has gotten. He’s had that offensive flare and individually he’s done a great job finishing.”

Three of the Condors top four scorers are rookies and as the Condors have shown in recent years, the track record for developing and moving players on to the NHL has been solid. But, it takes time. “It’s difficult for younger players and everyone wants results,” Chaulk said. “You have to adapt and change with the times. It takes time to get a finished product. It’s a slow cooker. It’s not an overnight process. There has been a lot of hard work, a lot of video, a lot of hard conversations, and now you’re seeing the kids have success. When you see that, they become poised, patient, and confident. They find their roles, they feel important, and that’s when you start stacking W’s on top of each other.”

Those wins have been a welcomed sight for the Condors who grinded through a stretch of 15 of 22 games on the road to emerge into March’s seven-game homestand on a good foundation to make a further push up the Pacific Division standings.

Tullio’s connection to his teammates, in particular his chemistry with veteran Seth Griffith, has played a key role in both individual and team success.

“Griff’s an unbelievable player. He can slow the game down and creates time and space for anyone on his line,” the 20-year old said. “I know he’ll find me and put it on my tape. We had a really offensive night in San Diego and I just had to find spots to get into a shooting area. I knew I just needed to get the puck and get it off my stick. I’ve fed off guys like that and do what I can do to bring something to the table.”

Poised and confident, Tullio and the Condors are in prime position to polish off a solid campaign.

A MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT

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,

2022-2023 SEASON

THE BEGINNINGS

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.

THE LEGENDS

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

THE COACHES

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.
