BONUS! We haven’t recorded a podcast for a few weeks, but every week we’ve done our show Tuesdays from 6p-7p on our host station, 96.9 the Game. Solar Bears Goaltender Clint Windsor is the first Solar Bears Signing for the 19/20 Season. Our conversation with Clint covered reasons he’s on the way back to Orlando, as well as some of the current NHL’ers Clint has played with through the years!
