Solar Bears Weekly Check-In: Getting the Band Back Together

It was not a good start to 2021 for the Orlando Solar Bears, who dropped their first two January games by a combined 10-1 goal margin.

However, thanks to reinforcements via the ECHL waiver wire and the Lightning, the team managed a split of their weekend slate against Florida and Jacksonville.

Transaction Wire:

-On Tuesday, the Solar Bears claimed defenseman Mark Auk off waivers from Rapid City. The third-year pro had 5 assists in 5 games for the Rush this season before his release. He split the 2019-20 season between Rapid City and Toledo, with 11 points in 31 games.
