The Orlando Solar Bears are deep in the hunt for a playoff berth in the ECHL’s South Division. The Solar Bears have 77 points with five games to go. That puts them third in their division, from which the top four will make the playoffs. Paralleling the division standings where their affiliated teams play in the AHL and NHL, the points race is tight as you can see in the table below.
