John McCarron of the Florida Everblades is the Inglasco ECHL Player of the Week for Feb. 7-13. It is the second time in his career that he has received the weekly honor. McCarron scored three goals and added two assists for five points in two games at Orlando last week. The 29-year-old scored both of Florida’s goals in a 2-1 win on Saturday and had three points (1g-2a) in a 5-4 overtime loss on Sunday. A native of Macomb, Michigan, McCarron is tied for second in the ECHL with 22 goals and is third with 48 points in 43 games this season.
