Mike Griffith of the Bakersfield Californian is reporting that the Ducks are likely to renew their ECHL affiliation with the Bakersfield Condors:

“There are pluses and minuses with everything and there were more pluses than minuses last year,” said [Condors president Matthew] Riley, who met recently with the Ducks hierarchy in Anaheim. “People focus on the negative, but there was good in (the affiliation) last year.”

And with one year of getting-to-know-you already in the books, Riley said said trying to work out the kinks could be better than starting all over.
