Boise, ID (Oct. 18th) - The Wichita Thunder, ECHL affiliate of the NHL's Edmonton Oilers, AHL's Bakersfield Condors and powered by Toyota, continue its road trip tonight with the first meeting of the season against the Idaho Steelheads.

The Thunder are looking to rebound after a tough loss on Wednesday night to Utah by the final score of 7-1. Idaho swept its road series last weekend against the Grizzlies, winning Friday night by the final of 3-1 and 3-2 on Saturday night.

Tonight begins a string of three-straight games between the two teams that will finish in Wichita on Friday, October 25th at INTRUST Bank Arena. All-time Wichita is 7-4-1 against Idaho and 3-2-0 on the road in the series.
