In their first season as part of the American Hockey League (AHL), the newly hatched San Diego Gulls have struggled to find consistent play.
As of Feb. 9, the team has compiled 21 wins and 18 losses, good for 8th in the Western Conference. Their mediocre record doesn’t exactly come as a surprise.
Not only is this the first year of the franchise, and the first taste of professional hockey for many of the players, but the team also features a very high percentage of young players.
