On the SJ Barracuda podcast with Marko:

#1 Things still pretty rough for the San Jose Barracuda whose losing streak extended to five games on Sunday at Tech CU Arena in San Jose in an overtime loss 5-4.

#2 Either way you slice it the Coachella Valley Firebirds are one of the toughest opponents that the Barracuda have to face on their schedule.

#3 It didn’t take long for San Jose to tack onto their lead as Patrick Bailey scored his fourth as well making it 2-0 less than five minutes in.

#4 In overtime Danil Gushchin took a high-sticking penalty and Coachella Valley took advantage as Shane Wright scored to end the game 5-4.

#5 San Jose will look to snap their losing streak against the Calgary Wranglers on the road at 12 p.m. on Friday.
