Jagr, Carter, Talbot named NHL's 3 stars of the week

The NHL's No. 1 star of the week is exactly who you thought it would be.

Florida Panthers forward and all-time NHL legend Jaromir Jagr took home this week's honors, after recording five assists in three games, propelling him past Mark Messier and into second place on the league's all-time scoring list with 1,889 points. The 44-year-old is second on the Panthers with 21 points in 31 games.

Jeff Carter's scoring tear earned him the second star, as the Los Angeles Kings center scored five goals in three games, resulting in two wins. Carter leads the Kings in points (29) and is tied for second in the NHL with 19 goals this season. His prominence in Los Angeles' attack is a major reason they're holding on to a wild-card position in the west.

Lastly, Edmonton Oilers netminder Cam Talbot is the third star this week after achieving a 2-0-1 record with a 2.26 goals against average and .926 save percentage. Talbot leads all goalies with 32 starts this season.
