Friday, November 22 at Toledo Walleye: 2-5 L
Video Highlights | Box Score
Jaydon Dureau scored a power play goal in his first game back from Syracuse, but the offense struggled to generate offense while 5-on-5. Down 5-1 in the third period, Anthony Bardaro scored shorthanded, but that's as close as they would get in a 5-2 loss. Toledo's line of Brandon Hawkins (3a), Tyler Spezia (1g, 1a) and Trenton Bliss (2g) combined for six points in the victory for Toledo.

Saturday, November 23 at Toledo Walleye : 4-2 W

The tone was set off the start by the Solar Bears, who opened the scoring for the first time in six games on a Spencer Kersten goal. In a tight contest, Orlando pulled away for good when Kelly Bent found Anthony Bardaro to make it 3-1, five minutes in to the final period. Kelly and Anthony were two of five players who recorded multi-point games, including Brayden Low who recorded his first multi-goal game of the season. Alexis Gravel made 32 saves for his first win as a Solar Bear in goal.
