The Coachella Valley Firebirds secured their first victory of the 2024-25 season with a narrow 6-5 win against the San Diego Gulls on Friday night. The highlight of the game was Cale Fleury's natural hat trick, where he scored three consecutive goals. Additionally, goaltender Nikke Kokko celebrated his first AHL win.
