Those that were sent down include forwards Jasper Weatherby, Cameron Wright, Matvey Petrov, Jayden Grubbe, James Stefan, defensemen Connor Corcoran and Alex Kannok-Leipert as well as goaltenders Brett Brochu and Connor Ungar.
Four of the players sent down (Petrov, Ungar, Grubbe & Stefan) were loaned straight to Bakersfield while the remaining five were released from their PTO and will report to the Condors.
The Condors, who finished ninth in the Western Conference in 2023-24, should be able to ice a talented team this upcoming season.
Weatherby should be a lock for the top nine as he is coming off a solid season with the Milwaukee Admirals. Grubbe, Petrov, Stefan and Wright are all talented young forwards who should take the next step in their developments. Corcoran and Kannok-Leipart should be solid depth on the backend and Ungar and Brochu will both compete for time in the Condors crease.
