The 23-year-old had a hat trick and added an assist in a 6-1 win against Adirondack on Friday, and after being held off the scoresheet in a 5-4 overtime loss at Worcester on Saturday, posted another hat trick and an assist in a 5-4 loss to the Railers on Sunday.

A native of Comox, British Columbia, Nijhoff has 45 points (23g-22a) in 52 games with the Lions this season while adding one assist in eight games with Laval of the American Hockey League.

Nijhoff has tallied 61 points (31g-30a) in 95 career ECHL games with Trois-Rivières, Tulsa and Indy and five points (4g-1a) in 58 career AHL games with Laval, Rockford and San Diego.

Since beginning its sponsorship of the award in 2000-01, Inglasco has donated more than 51,000 pucks to youth hockey organizations in ECHL cities.
