Condors Apr. 4th

The Condors lost 3-2 in game that went to OT and SO [shootout], against the Ontario Reign. Goalie, Jerad Kaufmann, played his first professional game, and did very well for the Condors. The shootout went to 7 shots, showing just how good our new backup goalie is. Win or lose, the Condors were going to the playoffs, and "Kaufer" needed to play at least one game in regular season to prepare for the playoffs.
This game was a nail biting, "I can't breath", game from the start. Both teams played for keeps. The first stanza included almost 50 minutes in penalties, plenty of fights, and two injured Reign players. Sadly, one of the injured Ontario Reign players was taken out on a stretcher to the hospital. I suspect an injured back, neck, or probably a leg injury like a torn hamstring.
This SO loss put the Condors in 3rd place in the Pacific Division. The Condors will start the playoffs next week in Las Vegas, against the Wranglers.
