KALAMAZOO, MI – The Kalamazoo Wings, proud ECHL affiliate of the National Hockey League’s Vancouver Canucks, announced Tuesday that the ECHL has named Quinn Preston the Inglasco ECHL Player of the Week for Jan. 20-26.

Preston scored two goals and added five assists for seven points in three games last week.

The 27-year-old scored a goal in 2-1 shootout loss at Toledo on Friday and in a 4-1 loss to Indy on Saturday before setting a team record with five assists in a 6-3 win against Bloomington on Sunday.

A native of Trenton, Michigan, Preston leads the K-Wings this season with 25 points (9g-16a) in 36 games.

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.
