Season Ends in Palm Desert as Wranglers Fall 2-0 to Firebirds
April 27, 2025 - American Hockey League (AHL)
Calgary Wranglers News Release
PALM DESERT, CA - The Wranglers' season came to a close at Acrisure Arena on Saturday night, falling 2-0 to the Coachella Valley Firebirds.
Despite a determined effort, Calgary couldn't find the back of the net, while Mitchell Stephens and John Hayden did the damage for the homeside.
After a tight, scoreless opening frame, it was Stephens who broke the deadlock midway through the second period, capitalising on a scramble in front. The Wranglers pressed for the equaliser in the third, but Hayden's empty-netter in the final minute stripped any hopes of a late comeback.
