LOOKING BACK
Bakersfield fell 2-1 at home to Coachella Valley on Saturday despite 32 stops from Calvin Pickard.
ROAD LIFE
The Condors are one of four unbeaten clubs on the road in the AHL this season, having won their opening three contests away from Condorstown. Five of the team's final seven games in November come on the road.
SOUP'S ON
Jack Campbell was assigned to Bakersfield yesterday and is expected to make his Condors debut tonight. The 31-year old has gone 53-22-10 in the NHL since the start of the 2021-22 season. It is his second season in the Edmonton Oilers organization and his first appearance in the AHL since the 2018-19 season with Ontario.
LOCKDOWN
The Condors are allowing a league low 1.67 goals against per game and have surrendered just seven even strength goals against through six contests. Olivier Rodrigue leads the AHL with a .968 save percentage through the early part of the season.
BIG ERNE
Adam Erne scored in his Condors debut on Saturday. He has 42 goals and 52 assists for 94 points in 160 career AHL games
I'M JUST A HAMBLIN MAN
James Hamblin was recalled by the Oilers and played for Edmonton in Monday's contest in Vancouver. He became the third Condors player to already play for the Oilers this season.
SHOOT IT
One area the Condors have stressed improvement in over the first six games is shot volume. Currently the team is averaging 25.33 shots per game, second fewest in the AHL.
ON THE OTHER SIDE
Abbotsford has played the second most games in the AHL with 11 so far and split a two-game set with Henderson at home last weekend.
