Nurse sent down with 3 others to Bakersfield. Doubt he's there all year, but wow.
It was quite the possibility before camp, then in camp with Reinhart stepping up it was becoming more apparent he'd be sent down.
Better for all. He still has some learning to do and will get a lot of pro minutes in Bakersfield.
Just a heads up, the Heat/Condors pre-season game is on the radio, you can find it on the Stockton website. But things are really getting intense. Kale Kessy fought Hunter Smith and then Kessy threw his helmet in celebration and all hell broke loose.
Kessy ended up getting 5 for fighting, 2 for roughing, 2 for unsportsmanlike conduct, 10 minute misconduct (for his 2nd fight of the night) and a game misconduct.
I admittedly know nothing about the guy, but looking at his career numbers I suspect he is only around for 1 reason. But this is minor league hockey so bush league antics will happen because it is a bush leagueDamn! Thanks for the heads up. Not big on that kind of showboating but Kessy was undoubtedly fired up as he didn't see a single second of preseason hockey here.

Nope. DIdn't even sound like they went down in the fightSo I assume that he dropped Smith to celebrate in such a fashion?

I love AHL hockey, sometimes more than the NHL
Yeah, dude is over the top. I like him other than the goal calls. He is better than the idiot that did the Adirondack games, that guy was terrible, I don't think he had seen a hockey game before.Heat up 4-1 now and you'd think that they just won the Calder Cup with that goal call!

You should have heard him on the 1st goal when Garet Hunt (who spent 7 years with the Thunder) scored to open the game haha
It was also his first AHL game too after being the ECHL guy for 2 years. The last PBP for the Abbotsford Heat (Brandon Astle?) was the same at first but toned down alot after the first few games. But I would rather have too excited than have it sound like they're calling a golf matchYeah a lot of minor league guys try a little too hard! It definitely sounded like the Heat dished out a beating on us tonight.

Not many AHL players made the trip up to Stockton for the Condors. Tonight against the Barracuda, there should be a more representative roster.
The Condors released Currie, Lessard, Pelech, Ranger, Whitney, Daly, Marciano, and Roussel from their try-outs
They also assigned G Ty Rimmer, C Alexis Loiseau, C Connor Rankin, and LW Marco Roy to Norfolk.
Here's the pregame video for tonight's game from the Condors:

That is unfortunate for probably Laurikainen (sp?) who is probably headed to Norfolk in that case and maybe even Broissoit if he losses playing time to Scrivens.Scrivens on waivers. Headed to Bako if he isn't claimed.
