Washington Capitals goaltender Logan Thompson, Nashville Predators left-wing Filip Forsberg and Boston Bruins right-wing David Pastrnak have been named the NHL's three stars of the week.
Thompson made 61 saves on 62 shots over three wins to lift the Capitals (31-10-5, 67 points) back into first place in the overall standings.
He started the week with a 3-0 win over Anaheim and a 1-0 victory over Ottawa before allowing a late goal in a 4-1 win over Pittsburgh.
His shutout streak of 198 minutes and 22 seconds ranks third-longest in franchise history, trailing only Pat Riggin (203:52 in 1984) and Jim Carey (200:04 in 1996).
Forsberg led the league with seven points (four goals, three assists) in three games, including a four-point performance in a 6-2 win over Minnesota on Saturday.
Pastrnak registered three points in each of his two games, finishing the week with two goals and four assists.
