Daavettila, who was named Second-Team All-ECHL on Wednesday, finished the season tied for fifth in ECHL scoring with 80 points (32g-48a) in 71 games. He went +24 over the final 19 games of the regular season, and was the ECHL Plus Performer of the Month for February after leading the league with a +15 during the month. The 26 year old also appeared in one game with Grand Rapids of the American Hockey League this season.

Bobby Raymond of Florida finished third with a plus-minus rating of +26 followed by Alaska’s Wes Goldie with a plus-minus rating of +25. Wheeling’s Ben Street, Ethan Cox of Alaska and Kalamazoo’s Andrew Fournier finished tied for fifth at +21.

The ECHL will announce the winner of the Coach of the Year and recipient of the John Brophy Award on Tuesday.
