OCEANSIDE, CA (Tuesday, November 10, 2026) – The Oceanside Shock take on the Stockton Thunder on Wednesday night at Frontwave Arena, continuing a four-game homestand. The game will feature $5 Coors Light and $6.50 Modelo beers from the time the gates open until the start of the second period. The game is scheduled for a 7:00pm PDT face-off, with the action televised on Shock TV, the Oceanside Shock YouTube team channel: youtube.com/@OceansideShock.
The Shock (1-6-2, 4 points) are seeking to end a six-game losing streak, which has put them at the bottom of the FPHL Frontier Division. Oceanside’s only win to date in its FPHL expansion season came on October 11 against the Thunder, a come-from-behind 5-4 overtime victory. Since then, the Shock are 0-4-2 with a goal differential of -20 (36 goals allowed, 16 scored). Oceanside begins the week five points behind third-place Minnesota in the Frontier Division for a playoff berth.
The Shock are hoping a week away from competition will have invigorated the team after their initial surge into the FPHL began with five games in ten days, and ended with a team battered and bruised. Head coach Craig Carlyle said a week of recovery and practice allowed the team to “make a few little changes that I think will serve us well in our next three games.”
“We got some guys back from injury, and got some guys back from injury back into shape,” said Carlyle. “There were a lot of positives coming out of this week, having ten days off between games.”
Stockton (2-2-2, 6 points) sits in fourth place in the Frontier and is 2-0-1 against Oceanside so far this season. The Thunder and Shock will meet a shocking seventeen times this season, representing 29% of the teams’ 58-game FPHL schedule. The Thunder is 0-2-1 against non-Shock teams and has lost three in a row (0-2-1) heading into Wednesday’s game. Stockton is starting a five-game road trip, which will see them travel to the Midwest this weekend for back-to-back games at Motor City and Port Huron. Team captain Petr Panacek leads the Thunder with (5-4=9) points, while William Augustine (1-2-1) leads the team with 240 minutes in net, producing a 4.24 GAA and .897 SV%.
After Wednesday’s game, the Shock get the weekend off again but then face four games in five days the following week, starting with back-to-back games against the first-place Fresno Falcons (8-1-0, 16 points). At the conclusion of the homestand on November 18, the Shock will have played nine of their first twelve games at home. The club will then embark on a seven-game road trip that will last until a home return on December 8.
