Nigel Dawes named Player of the Week
Six-point Game Saturday Sets Team Record
Monday, December 10, 2007 - 3:05 PM
The American Hockey League today named
Hartford Wolf Pack left-wing Nigel Dawes the Rbk AHL Player of the Week
for the week ending December 9th. Dawes totaled three goals and five
assists for eight points in the Wolf Pack's three games on the week, as
the Pack ran their streak of games with at least a standings point to
eight straight (7-0-0-1).
Dawes bagged the game-winning goal and added an assist in the Wolf
Pack's 3-1 home victory over Lowell on Friday night, and then exploded
for a record-setting outing Saturday evening in Worcester. The
third-year pro touched up the Sharks for two goals and four assists for
six points in a 7-1 Pack win, the first regular-season six-point game
turned in by an individual in Wolf Pack history. That also marked
Dawes' third four-point-or-better game in his last eight AHL contests
(8-11-19). Despite playing in only 12 of the Wolf Pack's 27 games on
the season, Dawes is tied for the team lead in assists, and ranks third
on the team in points and goals, with 9-15-24. He has also suited up
for 16 games with the parent New York Rangers, recording four goals and
an assist for five points.
The Wolf Pack return to action on home ice this Wednesday night,
December 12th at the Hartford Civic Center against the Houston Aeros
(7:00). They also play at home on Saturday evening, hosting the
Manchester Monarchs in a 7:00 game.
