DEALING IT
Collin Delia, a southern California native, is expected to get the start tonight for the Condors. He made 32 appearances with the Manitoba Moose a year ago and brings 52 games in the NHL with him to Condorstown this season.
LEADING SCORER SET FOR ACTION
Seth Griffith has led the Condors in scoring in each of the past three seasons. Last year, Griffith had 63 points (15g-48a) in 68 games.
A SAVVY START
Matthew Savoie is projected to play in tonight's preseason game. The 2022 ninth overall pick by the Buffalo Sabres was acquired by the Edmonton Oilers this summer in a deal which sent Ryan McLeod and Ty Tullio to the Sabres. The 20-year old Savoie had 47 points (19g-28a) in 23 games with Moose Jaw of the Western Hockey League (WHL).
FRESH FACE
James Stefan was signed to a three-year, entry-level contract in March. The 21-year old led Portland and was fourth in the entire WHL with 50 goals last season. He is the son of Patrik Stefan, who was drafted first overall in the 1999 NHL Draft by Atlanta.
SOPHMORE SEASONS
Jayden Grubbe, Matvey Petrov, and Cameron Wright all return for year two in Condorstown. The trio combined for 29 goals last year with Wright pacing the group with 12 in his rookie campaign.
ON THE ROAD TO START
Bakersfield starts the 2024-25 regular season with a pair of road games in Coachella Valley (Oct. 11) and Ontario (Oct. 18.). The team's home opener is set for Saturday, Oct. 19 against San Diego.
