HUNTERSVILLE, NC (May 4, 2021) – The Southern Professional Hockey League (SPHL) today announced that Garrett Milan of the Pensacola Ice Flyers has been named the Warrior Hockey/SPHL Player of the Week for April 26-May 2.
Milan scored one goal and added three assists as Pensacola split a pair of games, clinching third place in the SPHL standings in the process.
On Saturday, the North Vancouver, BC native recorded one assist in Pensacola’s 3-1 loss to Birmingham. Sunday afternoon’s clash with Huntsville in the last game of the 2020-2021 regular season would decide who finished third in the standings.
