The San Jose Barracuda (15-9-1-1) couldn’t complete a third-period comeback on Wednesday night, falling 4–2 to the Coachella Valley Firebirds (14-7-3-0) at Acrisure Arena. San Jose erased two separate deficits and tied the game midway through the third period, but Coachella Valley pulled away late with the go-ahead goal and an empty-netter to secure the win.
