Photos: Bakersfield Condors drop Alaska Aces 4-3

The Alaska Aces blew an early two-goal lead, forged the game-tying goal with less than four minutes left, then surrendered a goal in the final minute as Bakersfield closed the four-game series with its third win.

Just when it looked as if Saturday's 4-1 Alaska win, its first on home ice this season, could possibly stand as a turning point in the Aces' difficult start to the season, they instead find themselves 2-8-0.

That shabby record comes with heavy work ahead. The Aces are scheduled to fly Monday to Boise, Idaho, where they play games Tuesday and Wednesday nights before traveling home Thursday for games Friday, Saturday and Sunday against Stockton.
