PRINCETON, N.J. - Reading Royals right wing Greg
Hogeboom is the In Glas Co ECHL Player of the Week for Dec.

After scoring a goal and registering an assist in a 3-2 loss to Cincinnati
on Dec. 6, the 24-year-old had a goal and an assist in a 5-2 win against
the Cyclones on Dec. 8 and scored a goal in a 3-2 overtime win against
Johnstown on Dec. 9. He ended the week with a career-high four assists and
a career-best four points in a 7-4 win against Trenton that moved the
Royals into second place in the North Division.
Selected in the fifth round (152nd overall) by Los Angeles in the 2002 NHL
Entry Draft and under NHL contract to the Kings, the 24-year-old leads the
Royals with 20 assists, 32 points and a plus-minus rating of +8. He is tied

is tied for fifth in scoring and tied for sixth in assists. He has also

and had 27 points (9g-18a) in 19 games before being recalled to Manchester
where he had 19 points (9g-10a) in 42 regular season games and also played
in one playoff game. He had one goal and 10 penalty minutes in 14 games
with Manchester in 2004-05, but missed most of the season due to a wrist
injury, and one assist in three games after signing with the Monarchs after
completing his season at Miami University (Ohio) in 2003-04.
