FIRST STAR – JOHNNY GAUDREAU, LW, CALGARY FLAMES
Johnny Gaudreau has been behind much of the resurgence of the Calgary Flames over the past two seasons, and also helped them earn two more wins on the season as he picked up five goals, including a game winner, en route to first star honors. He now has five game winning goals on the season.
Gaudreau uses all Bauer gear on the ice. His Bauer helmet starts things off nicely up top, and is complemented by Bauer Vapor APX2 pro gloves, and a Bauer Vapor APX2 stick. He also wears Bauer branded pants, and Bauer Vapor APX2 skates. Gaudreau’s setup includes some additional protection on his gloves, as well as shot blockers on his skates.
SECOND STAR – ANTTI NIEMI, G, DALLAS STARS
Antti Niemi is having an incredible season so far with the Dallas Stars, and his 2-0-1 record last week bumped him to second star of the week. Niemi also posted a shutout last week, along with a 1.02 goals against average and .966 save percentage. He is now 15-5-3 for the league leading Stars.
Niemmi rocks the Vaughn Velocity series goal pads, as well as a Vaughn Velocity catch glove and blocker. His goal stick, on the other hand, comes from Warrior.
THIRD STAR – TYLER BOZAK, C, TORONTO MAPLE LEAFS
Tyler Bozak’s hat trick on December 21st helped propel him to third star of the week. He added another goal and an assist in games later in the week as well, totaling 5 points in only 3 games played. Bozak’s leafs have struggled this season, but with James Reimer returning, they could be poised for a turnaround.
Bozak is another player still wearing Bauer Vapor APX2 skates. On his hands are CCM 4 roll pro gloves, and he uses an Easton Stealth CX stick. Bozak also uses CCM pants and a CCM helmet.
