About Today’s Game: The Icemen will entertain the Orlando Solar Bears tonight in their home finale. Orlando spoiled the Icemen’s playoffs hopes on Tuesday, and the Icemen will be looking to do some spoiling of their own this evening. A regulation win by Jacksonville tonight would eliminate Orlando from playoff contention. If Orlando earns a point tonight, they would also need Jacksonville to defeat South Carolina in North Charleston on Saturday.

Szmatula leads the Icemen in scoring against Orlando with 14 points (6g, 8a)….Goaltender Kyle Keyser is expected to start in goal this evening.

About the Solar Bears: Aaron Luchuk continues to lead the league in scoring with 74 points. Luchuk enters tonight’s game riding a five-game points streak….The Solar Bears are ranked second on the penalty kill on the road at 86.2 percent (106-for-123)
