Boise, ID (4/9/2015) - The ECHL announced Thursday that Idaho Steelheads forward Wade MacLeod was one of six players voted first-team All-ECHL for the 2014-2015 season.
MacLeod, 28, is the fifth Steelhead to earn first-team All-ECHL honors, joining Matt Case (2012-13), Mark Derlago (twice, 2009-10, 2010-11) and Marty Flichel (2006-07).
The Coquitlam, BC, native is currently ranked second in the ECHL with 80 points (38 goals, 42 assists). He finished the regular-season with a flourish, collecting 35 points (21 goals, 14 assists) in 26 games since February 1. Even more specifically, MacLeod had 13 goals in his final 16 games of the regular season.
The rest of the ECHL first-team, as determined by a vote of ECHL coaches, broadcasters, media relations directors and media:
G - Jeff Jakaitis, South Carolina Stingrays (36 gp, 25-8-2, 2.01 GAA, .922 save pct.)
D - Mike Little, Florida Everblades (60 gp, 13g, 40a, 53 pts., +43)
