AHL TV Broadcast

​Game Location: Merchants Bank Arena, Bakersfield, CA
 
Hello, and welcome to another edition of ‘Live-Blogging Shish on Professional Ice Hockey’. Tonight, it is an American Hockey League game, between San Jose Barracudas (San Jose Sharks Affiliate) and Bakersfield Condors (Edmonton Oilers).
 
Barracudas open their 2021-22 AHL Regular Season. They got swept in the Pacific Division Semifinals. They would like to do better in this year’s Calder Cup.
 
For the Condors, they are the defending Pacific Division Playoff Champions, as the AHL didn’t have the Calder Cup due to COVID-19 Mitigation in United States and Canada. Bakersfield defeated Henderson Silver Knights (Vegas Golden Knights) in 3 games. They would like to turn that playoff success into a Calder Cup in 2021-22.
 
It is San Jose Barracudas and Bakersfield Condors, coming up shortly.

Barracudas are in their teal jerseys and black pants. While Condors are in their home white jerseys and navy pants.
