There will be outdoor hockey in California once again this season.
The American Hockey League’s Bakersfield Condors and Stockton Heat will head outside for a game on Dec. 18 at Raley Field in West Sacramento, Calif.
The Edmonton Oilers’ affiliate and Calgary Flames’ farm club will be a part of the Golden State Hockey Rush – a six-week holiday extravaganza, which runs from Nov. 20 to Jan. 3.
“This event will be a special showcase for our Pacific Division in its inaugural season,” AHL president and CEO David Andrews said in a statement. “We look forward to this celebration of hockey outdoors and to sharing the experience with the terrific hockey fans in Northern California.”
