#AHL PDO breakdown. Marlies and baby Pens in good spots. Bruins and Moose with poor luck. https://t.co/kZg09szqml pic.twitter.com/AO8mxOzytR

- Recent injuries (Nic Kerdiles, Bailey) and call-ups (Shea Theodore) have perhaps grounded the Gulls, as they’ve lost three straight.
- 2008 Los Angeles third-rounder Robbie Czarnik, who was just signed to a PTO by San Diego, might get a chance for some revenge on the Kings organization.
- The Gulls, similar to their parent club, seem to have Ontario’s number, despite the Reign often outshooting them and frequent quality territorial time in the (Reign) offensive zone. There is also no love lost between these two teams, who established their rivalry back in the preseason with a couple of early scraps.
