Awesome stuff. And none of the points in this game were scored by AHL vets.

- Kylington, second-year AHLer and 19-year-old scores the go-ahead shorty. (not the GWG, but ultimately the playoff-clinching goal)
- Rittich, legit NHL prospect and AHL rookie, goes 33/34 in what basically amounts to the biggest game of the year
- Jankowski, first year AHLer, wins the race and battle on the ENer to keep it in the Condors' zone
- Lomberg, second year pro, first year AHLer, who starts his first NHL contract next year, scores the ENer through sheer determination (also the GWG)

A ton of character shown by this Stockton team that was pretty much out of it in January. At their age, one might even argue they had no business being in the playoffs as I think they are the youngest team in the entire AHL. Yet here they are, and they did it with minimal vet contributions (though having Kostka definitely shored up their PP).

Hopefully now they find another gear for the playoffs.
