Solid production has earned Patrice Bergeron, Jonathan Bernier, and Sidney Crosby the league's Three Stars of the Week.
The Boston Bruins forward claimed top spot on the back of his first career four-goal game against the Carolina Hurricanes on Saturday. In all, Bergeron led the league this week with five goals in three games while chipping in two assists. Bergeron has also been instrumental in the Bruins' current 11-game point streak that has seen them go 8-0-3. Boston now occupies the second spot in the Atlantic Division.
Bernier earned second star honors after going 3-0-0 with a 1.60 goals-against average, a .957 save percentage, and a shutout. The perfect week helped propel the Colorado Avalanche into a playoff spot, having won five straight games. Meanwhile, the club has already matched their win total from last season.
Crosby rounds out the three stars having picked up a league-high seven assists and eight points in four games. The Pittsburgh Penguins captain concluded the week with four- and three-point games, snapping a streak of 12 games without multiple points.
