In the loss, Leon Gawanke (7) made it goals in his last two and is now T-third in the AHL among defenseman in goals and points (23).
In the first, the Condors opened the scoring at 1:52 when Carter Savoie (2) ripped a shot past Magnus Chrona on the stick-side as he carried it down the right wing. But Gawanke would tie the score at 8:10 when he went five-hole on Jack Campbell. Nikolai Knyzhov would then give the Barracuda their first lead at 15:59 on a point-shot. His first goal in the AHL since February of 2020.

In the third, Ben Gleason (3, 4), who was assigned from Edmonton this morning, gave the Condors their lead back at 6:20 and then sealed the win with an empty netter at 19:15.
