These NHL stars shone the brightest during the week before Christmas.
Los Angeles Kings center Anze Kopitar, Philadelphia Flyers right wing Jakub Voracek and Pittsburgh Penguins goaltender Marc-Andre Fleury have been named the NHL's three stars for the week ending Dec. 21, the league announced Monday.
Kopitar led the NHL with nine points - including eight assists - in three games, recording consecutive three-point games for the first time since October 2009.
Fleury went 3-0-0 with a 0.99 goals-against average and a .971 save percentage, including an overtime shutout win over the Colorado Avalanche. He now ranks second in the NHL with 19 wins and also sits in the top five in save percentage (4th; .933) and goals-against average (5th; 1.97).
