Solar Bears Camp from RDV Sportsplex Ice Den!

Listen to “1o3 :: Solar Bears Camp from RDV Sportsplex Ice Den!” on Spreaker.

We had the opportunity to bring Hockey Now to Orlando Solar Bears Camp at RDV Sportsplex after their Team Scrimmage! Taylor Doherty stopped by first to talk about his first stint with the Solar Bears, and his experience last season in the Czech Republic. Then, new Solar Bear Jake Marchment joined us to talk about his expectations for the coming season, and what kind of insight he got from his cousin, Mason Marchment, a former Solar Bear.

Our buddy Jackson Playfair stops by as we continue the show from RDV Sportsplex Ice Den after the Solar Bears Team Scrimmage! You really won’t believe the summer Jackson had, LITERALLY crisscrossing through the continent on his way to Orlando! Of course, we have to hit Jacky (this will make more sense after you listen) with the 20 Questions – and Nick geeks out about Jackson’s Flow. The word “Flow-God” was used.

We’ll also hit Zach with the 20 Questions!

Kristin Baier – Director of Marketing and Game Presentation – stops by to talk about some of the promotional nights for the coming season – including some of the specialty jerseys the team will wear! Jesse Liebman also swings by before we wrap up the recording for some quick hits and insight to the coming season and some players we’re excited to see take the next step this year!
