Tanner Jeannot led the way offensively for the Everblades with a pair of goals. Defensemen Michael Downing and Arvin Atwal both posted their first goals of the season en route to a Florida victory. Rookie Patrick Harper recorded three assists to extend his league-leading points streak to five games.
