Despite taking an early lead and holding it for forty minutes, Jacksonville was unable to overcome a third period surge by the Orlando Solar Bears. Christophe Lalancette got the scoring started for the Icemen, against his former team, on a power play in the first. Orlando's Jonne Tammela kept the Solar Bears from heading scoreless into the first intermission, on his way to a hat trick. His third goal would be the game-winner for the Bears.FINAL: Jacksonville 3 – Orlando 4Â
