Solar Bears drop 2-1 OT decision to Everblades

ESTERO, Fla. – Clint Windsor made 39 saves and Tristin Langan netted his first career goal, but the Orlando Solar Bears (3-5-1-1) fell to the Florida Everblades (7-3-0-0) in overtime by a 2-1 score on Friday night at Hertz Arena.

Box Score

Langan broke a 0-0 deadlock just 14 seconds into the second period as Tyler Bird put a shot on net, and after the puck rebounded off Ken Appleby’s pads, the rookie forward jammed home the first goal of his pro career.

Michael Huntebrinker tied the score at 9:05 of the third period on a wrap-around attempt that got past Windsor, and regulation ended with the score tied at 1-1.

Blake Wienecki won it in overtime for Florida when John McCarron’s shot struck the crossbar and dropped into the crease, allowing Wienecki to knock the puck into the net at the 6:11 mark of the extra session.

Windsor took the overtime loss with 39 saves on 41 shots against; Appleby got the victory for Florida with 21 stops on 22 shots against.
