Nightingale has played in one game this season for the ECHL's Toledo Walleye, after logging 67 AHL games last year with the Rockford IceHogs. He notched one goal and three assists for four points in those 67 contests in 2013-14, along with a team-leading 114 penalty minutes.

Nightingale has skated in 387 AHL games in his career, with the Wolf Pack/Whale, IceHogs, Syracuse Crunch, Chicago Wolves, Iowa Stars and Springfield Falcons, amassing 14 goals and 35 assists for 49 points, plus 854 PIM.
