Skipjacks right wing Mark Hunter, a 12-year NHL veteran, was named American Hockey League Player of the Week yesterday.
Hunter scored the game-winning goal against the Hershey Bears on Wednesday, and followed with back-to-back hat tricks against the Binghamton Rangers on Friday and Rochester Americans on Sunday.
For the week, Hunter had seven goals and two assists and the Skipjacks went 2-0-1, keeping their unbeaten string alive at six games.
