San Diego Gulls

San Diego is a desirable place to be, and that’s no different if you’re a head coach in the AHL. “It’s probably one of the most sought after positions in minor league hockey to get, and when they told me I got the job I was fired up.” Those were the words of Roy Sommer on Tuesday, when he...

As if a 51-save performance wasn’t impressive enough. With 19 seconds left in their win at Colorado, Gulls netminder Lukas Dostal sent a puck the length of the ice and into the Eagles vacated net.

The Gulls are the hottest team in the American Hockey League. They’ve won five straight games and in the span of a week and a half went from 9th (and last) place in the Pacific Division to 3rd place.

That wait finally ends on Friday night. San Diego hosts Stockton for the first true home game in nearly two years. Before the pandemic shuttered buildings across...

In a pair of exhibition games the Gulls had no trouble beating the Reign. San Diego outscored Ontario 9-4 and looked like the much better team. The regular season opener did not follow that script.
