Grant Scores League Leading 23rd but Comeback Effort Stymied in Bakersfield
February 6, 2016 - American Hockey League (AHL)
Stockton Heat News Release
Bakersfield, Calif. - The Stockton Heat fell behind to the Bakersfield Condors by four goals after 40 minutes Saturday night before the Heat staged a furious third period rally that saw them score three unanswered goals; however it was not enough as the Condors held on to win by a score of 4-3. Derek Grant set the comeback in motion with his league-leading 23rd goal on the season, before Emile Poirier and Dustin Stevenson scored a goal each to pull Stockton within one late in the contest. Ultimately, Bakersfield goaltender Laurent Brossoit and company held strong and earned the win. The Stockton Heat and the Bakersfield Condors will take a couple days away from each other before meeting right back at Rabobank Arena Tuesday night for a rematch.
