ESTERO, Fla. – After a 3–1 loss to the Orlando Solar Bears in their home opener, the Florida Everblades will face their rivals tonight at the Kia Center for a 7 p.m. puck drop.

The final stanza featured two disallowed goals for Tarun Fizer and one counted goal from Logan Will, solidifying the loss. Will’s goal marked his first professional tally.

Jesse Lansdell netted two on the man advantage with Reid Duke registering as a helper on both and Jordan Sambrook adding two assists of his own Friday night.
