FEATURE STORY
THE MELTDOWN OF ALL MELTDOWNS
ryan Holt | bakersfield condors
It’s the latest craze sweeping across Condorstown. With one minute to go in the second period, the crowd rises with anticipation and the team desperately searches for the biggest goal of the night.
We’re not talking an overtime game winner. We’re not even talking about a hat trick. Heck, the Condors don’t even need to be leading.
We’re talking about the McDonald’s McFlurry Meltdown!
The McFlurry Meltdown has been like Bigfoot this season. An elusive creature that’s talked about, but not quite captured. Allegedly, everyone in attendance gets a McFlurry if the Condors score during the meltdown minute, but since it’s never happened, it remains to be seen if the coupons actually exist.
But wait. There was hope. Why yes, Saturday, with thousands in attendance, the clock slowly ticked down. The puck landed on Seth Griffith’s stick. The puck went over
the line and into the net. The crowd cheered. The Condors increased the lead.
Phil Kemp exclaimed “IT’S RAINING MCFLURRYS!!!” on the bench.
Then the unthinkable happened. The goal was waived off. Apparently the meltdown had ended just tenths of a second too soon. Kids wept. It was a travesty.
There would be a silver lining. The Condors checked Article 5, Section 6 of the McFlurry Meltdown by-laws which stated that if a goal is waived off, it is to the determination of Team President Matthew Riley to decide if the coupons should be unlocked. And with that decision, the McFlurry Meltdown roller coaster ride was complete. Kids were happy. Toppings were eaten. And McDonald’s across the city rejoiced.

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.

SCOTT HOWSON
PRESIDENT AND CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER AMERICAN HOCKEY LEAGUE
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,
Scott Howson President & CEO | American Hockey League
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.
