ryan Holt | bakersfield condors
During the Condors 20th anniversary season, the team held a fan voting March Madness style bracket to determine the team’s “Mr. Condor.” It was a title voted on by and for the fans of a team who had seen plenty come through the walls of Condorstown and a preview of what was to come for the city in the future years.
In the end, it was former Condors captain Sean Venedam who was named Mr. Condor as recognition of his dedication and work over three seasons in Bakersfield.
“It’s a great organization and a great city,” he said recently as he was in the midst of running his sporting goods store in Ontario, Canada. “We had good teams and great people and friends that I have to this day.”
Venny spent 2005-08 in Bakersfield and at the time was part of two of the most successful postseason runs in team history. His career was cut short in 2008 when a freak injury caused him to eventually lose his leg. The injury gave him a new perspective on life and the game he loved as he turned a negative into a positive by competing in the world championships for the
Canadian Paralympic team, winning a gold medal.
“I got way more from those individuals than they ever got from me,” he said. “It was closure to me. I had played the game my whole life and to see the appreciation that my teammates, who many were born without a limb, had for that moment was special.”
His daughter is an elite gymnast who’s competing across the province of Ontario and Venny still keeps tabs on what’s happening in Condorstown. “The fan support has always been there. That’s the main thing to have the community support the team the way they have,” he said. “Now you have guys going on to the NHL and it’s really special to have that there.”
No matter where he calls home, Venny always has a spot in Condorstown lore.

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,

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

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
