The 26-year-old had an assist in a 6-2 loss on Friday, tallied a goal and an assist in an 8-2 win on Saturday and scored five goals while adding two assists in a 9-5 victory on Sunday. He became just the 35th player in ECHL history to score at least five goals in a game.

Calder made his pro debut late last season with Florida, scoring one goal in six regular-season games while adding six points (3g-3a) in 17 postseason contests as the Everblades captured the Kelly Cup title.

Prior to turning pro, Calder totaled 117 points (54g-63a) in 179 career collegiate games at Lake Superior State University, the University of North Dakota and Penn State University.

On behalf of Ashton Calder, a case of pucks will be donated to a Worcester youth hockey organization by Inglasco, the exclusive puck supplier of the ECHL. Since beginning its sponsorship of the award in 2000-01, Inglasco has donated more than 49,000 pucks to youth hockey organizations in ECHL cities.
