BUFFALO, NY (Canisius Media Release) - After recording the ninth hat trick in the program’s Division I history, junior Cory Conacher (Burlington, Ontario) was honored as the Atlantic Hockey Player of the Week.
With the Griffs facing a 3-0 deficit against Lake Superior State, Conacher led a Canisius rally by tallying the next three goals to knot the game. The natural hat trick was the second in school history, joining Chris Duggan who scored three-straight goals against Sacred Heart on Feb. 19, 1999.
Conacher currently leads all Atlantic Hockey players with his three goals this season. Through 59 career games, the Burlington, Ontario native has totaled 55 points, 22 goals and 33 assists.
