Utah Hockey Club right-wing Dylan Guenther, Winnipeg Jets goaltender Connor Hellebuyck and Vegas Golden Knights center Jack Eichel have been named the NHL鈥檚 three stars of the week.
Guenther paced the NHL with five goals across three games, all of which Utah was victorious in. Utah became the second franchise in league history to win its first three games, with the other being Vegas in 2017-18.
Guenther became the fifth player in NHL history to record multiple goals in each of a franchise鈥檚 first two games 鈥 and the first to achieve the feat since the NHL鈥檚 inaugural season (1917-18).
Hellebuyck stopped 81 of the 83 shots he faced, going 3-0-0 with a 0.66 goals-against average, .976 save percentage and one shutout as the Jets have enjoyed a perfect start to the campaign.
The reigning Vezina Trophy and William M. Jennings Trophy winner began 2024-25 with a 30鈥憇ave shutout 鈥 the 38th of his career 鈥 in a 6-0 victory over the Edmonton Oilers last Wednesday.
Eichel led the NHL with six assists and seven points in three games to power the Golden Knights to their third straight 3-0-0 start to a season. He opened the campaign with four helpers in a 8-4 triumph over the Colorado Avalanche last Wednesday.
