Striking on their lone power-play chance of the opening period, Oliver Fortier (7th) gave the Solar Bears a 1-0 advantage, as he poked a free puck past Joel Martin with 51.4 remaining in the period. Fortier's goal was his team-leading fifth on the power-play.

Fortier (8th) continued his scoring dominance against the K-Wings in the second period, as the forward netted his second goal of the afternoon and his fourth in two games against Kalamazoo with a rebound marker midway in the stanza.

Cutting the deficit in a half early in the third period was Dustin Cloutier, who netted his third-goal of the season on a centering pass from Steven Anthony.

Orlando's Hannu Toivonen (1-0-0-0) made 38 saves in the victory, while Martin (5-5-0-0) turned aside 24 in defeat.
