With a 2-1 victory over the Bakersfield Condors (Edmonton’s farm team) tonight, the Stockton Heat have wrapped up a playoff spot.
The evening’s first and finest goal was scored by Swedish golden boy Oliver Kylington, who did it on a sweet end-to-end effort.

It was also his first game back from a minor lower body injury, just to make the narrative that much sweeter.
Bakersfield later scored to tie it up 1-1, but as the Heat only needed a single point to clinch a playoff spot and elimate them, the Condors pulled their goalie.
