ORLANDO, Fla. — The Orlando Solar Bears have announced that the club has signed goaltender Thomas Sigouin to an ECHL Standard Player Contract.

Sigouin (sih-GWAN), 21, joins Orlando after posting a 4-4-0 record in eight appearances with Concordia University this season, along with a 3.12 goals-against average, a .913 save percentage and one shutout.
