Abbotsford Canucks vs Coachella Valley Firebirds
He sets it up to the center point with a minute to go on the power play will land it shot at the Circle Bane settles it down tries to move it across for neelon and the firebird SC out the center ice two on two here’s St an each at the
Circle puts it across a shot SC a short-handed goal for Max McCormack and the firebird strike first in the opening period yeah just a great job of staying in the lanes and gets another one yeah and you can see that the Canucks have changed up their power play a little bit
Here tonight where it’s become a little more of a shoot mentality where they’re trying to get into a lane and get shots away and the Firebirds are doing a great job of getting in the way ratu puts it on goal the rebound knocked home Max San
A power play goal and it is a 1-1 game not sure if it actually be deemed a power play goal or not but in any event the kcks with a response to P even yeah I mean it’s it’s a good hockey team I think it’s for abbotford John Stevens left side over
The line Ty Glover lets it go into the glove of kale Morris and Hill Hall da Cella Valley gets the first goal of the game thanks to a shorty by Max McCormick quickly followed up by the abbotford Canucks a even strength goal for Max toan 1-1 and Tristan neiel skates it
Down for absord throws it off the side of the net ends up bouncing off Morris and a whistle after Morris makes the save Conor Carrick Knocks down Tristan Nielson and they’ll be separated quickly by the linesmen so the Canuck back a full strength Firebirds fail to capitalize we remain front of rker Evans
Around the board it’s John Stevens right side for woo here’s will lanon golfs it to the corner Puck wrapped on goal by Luen and a save made by Kale Morris as he hangs on Luen mixing things up a little bit and the teams separated after the whistle still
Locked at one they don’t get the call ly meanwhile out to Center and an awkward fall for Tristan neelon but luckily he’s okay Chance in front of shot they score abbotford comes right down scores with 17 seconds to go in the first period and a big one for the Canucks as
Vil pot cools it breaks the one-1 time yeah just a giveaway in the Firebirds end and an unfortunate time you got 17 seconds left in the period you want to make sure you’ve got a handle on the pocket one lead rather for abbottford yeah abbotsford’s done a good
Job of taking away time and space and they’re finishing every hit I think that’s the big thing that we didn’t see yesterday is they finished hits in their end but not in the offensive end and tonight they’re finishing Puck guys everywhere and pucks are bouncing their way Cal Morris
Gloves flip it all the way down over the line here is Tristan neelon neiel pass across for irn lets it go they score harsh deep Banes on the near side of the crease bats it home good set up by irn it’s a 3-1 abbottford lead yeah really good play by irn to get

Sure a shot they score a short handed goal for AR Baines after a collision in the offensive Zone and abbottford gets their two-goal lead right back with a short-handed goal yeah I’m not sure what really happened with the Firebirds there but it was muscles it up top bar and St in each
Looking for Conor Carrick Stevens gets in the way Carrick lets it go they [Applause] score Conor Carrick a fire fire bird strike and get it right back it’s 4-3 yeah and it’s a goal that was desperately needed by the Firebirds and Carrick does a great job a walking the
Line and getting a shot rer Evans on side for Coachella Valley Firebird set up McCormick pass across off the Stick of Stevens Lind for Evans through traffic a shot rebound SC Shane Wright a power play goal and we’re tied at four yeah and just a great play again

The Canucks tie it it comes right to abbotford against the left side and it finds its way through Morris and it’s tied at five with 154 to go yeah just an unfortunate giveaway in front of the net and ends up in the back of the net

Why not show all of the shootout? Bummer.
From a Firebirds fan:
The audio quality of the AHL streams/ YouTube channel replays is consistently pretty awful. Clipping and distorting aggressively with volume inconsistencies.
The choice of some clips is so random. Why is there a broadcast ad in the replay? Or passing plays that were inconsequential?
How do you not put in all of the shoot out attempt goals on the replay. Or at least show the winning goal.
I live out of the desert and work a lot. When I visit I go watch games In person. However, these highlights on the channel are how I am able to recap the games.
As a big fan I think there is a lot to improve. Our firebirds went to the Calder Cup last year! The production on the YT channel should reflect that!
