October 27, 2019 - American Hockey League (AHL)
Stockton Heat News Release
BAKERSFIELD, Calif. - Behind multi-goal performances from Ryan Lomberg and Buddy Robinson, the Stockton Heat skated past the Bakersfield Condors to a 6-3 win Saturday night at Mechanics Bank Arena. With the win, Stockton earns a weekend split against Bakersfield and improves to 5-0 on the year in road games. The Condors' Cooper Marody got the scoring started just past the halfway point of the first, but the Heat responded by potting back-to-back goals and five of the next six in the contest. Robinson tied the game at one before Eetu Tuulola netted his fourth of the campaign, then a 2-2 tie was followed by goals in quick succession from Mason Morelli, his first of the season, and goals from Lomberg to bookend the second intermission to seize control of the game. The Heat got a big boost on special teams, capitalizing on three of six power plays while limiting Bakersfield to just 1-for-8 on the man-advantage.
