Utah Grizzlies News Release
West Valley City, Utah - The ECHL announced today that Utah forwards Ryan Kinasewich and Tyler Haskins have been named co-winners of the In Glas Co ECHL Player of the Week award for Jan. 14-20.
Haskins tallied seven goals and two assists during three games last week, including back-to-back hat tricks January 16 and 18. Kinasewich finished with one goal and ten assists, including an all-time Utah high with six points (one goal, five assists) in a game January 16 versus Phoenix. The Grizzlies took two of three from the RoadRunners at the E-Center last week.
Kinasewich has now been named the league's player of the week six times in his career and five times the last three seasons in Utah.
Haskins, a 21-year-old rookie, attended training camp this year with the Islanders and is a former Detroit Red Wings draft pick.
The two become the first players in the ECHL since the 1996-97 season to be named co-players of the week.
On behalf of Tyler Haskins and Ryan Kinasewich a case of pucks will be donated to a Utah area youth hockey organization by In Glas Co, the exclusive puck supplier for the ECHL. Since beginning its sponsorship of the award in 2000-01, In Glas Co has donated more than 18,000 pucks to youth hockey organizations in ECHL cities.
The Grizzlies return from the break tonight to host Las Vegas at the E-Center. Face-off is scheduled for 7:05 p.m.
