Johnny Boychuk took a skate to the eye resulting in 90 stitches, the Philadelphia Flyers now have the best odds of winning the Stanley Cup, Quinn Hughes doesn't think any rookie has been better than him the last 30 games, Leon Draisaitl continues his record-breaking season and Bobby Ryan's triumphant return to Ottawa after an extended hiatus.
Kevin Fiala, Ryan Ellis, and Pavel Francouz were named the NHL 3 Stars of the Week.
Quinn Hughes continues to impress, earning February Rookie of the Month honors.
Leon Draisaitl can't stop, won't stop! The German man-rocket recorded his 100th point this past week, for his second consecutive season hitting the century mark... and supplanting himself as a legitimate MVP candidate.
After completing 100 days of sobriety and in his first game back in Ottawa, Bobby Ryan scored an emotion-filled hat trick! The hockey community is rooting for you, Bobby!
Shane Wright of the Kingston Frontenacs is living up to his exceptional-status hype! Over the weekend the teenager tied Connor McDavid's OHL underage rookie record of 66 points, scoring a natural hat trick and recording an assist. And it took Shane 9 less game than Connor!
And according to NHL insider Darren Dreger, the NHL is looking to update its offsides rule to minimize replay confusion.
