Toronto, ON - The Ontario Hockey League today announced that Dallas Stars prospect Riley Damiani of the Kitchener Rangers is the OHL 'On the Run' Player of the Week for the regular season week ending February 3 with nine points in three games scoring four goals and five assists with a plus-minus rating of plus-8.

Damiani led the league in scoring last week while helping the Rangers earn four of a possible six points as they jostle for position in the Western Conference standings. The highlight of his week was back-to-back four point performances in a home-and-home set with the Owen Sound Attack. He recorded two goals and two assists as first star of Wednesday's 7-4 road win, followed by a goal with a trio of assists to drive Rickard Hugg's hat-trick earning second star in Friday's 6-1 victory at home. On Saturday Damiani scored his 20th goal of the season, a new career-high, despite a 4-2 loss to the London Knights. The Rangers currently occupy the seventh seed in the Western Conference playoff race with a 23-23-3-0 record just two points behind the Sarnia Sting for sixth, and three points ahead of the Windsor Spitfires who are in eighth.
