NEW YORK (Nov. 28, 2016) – Ottawa Senators goaltender Craig Anderson, New Jersey Devils left wing Michael Cammalleri and San Jose Sharks defenseman Brent Burns have been named the NHL’s “Three Stars” for the week ending Nov. 27.
FIRST STAR – CRAIG ANDERSON, G, OTTAWA SENATORS
Anderson paced the NHL with four wins, compiling a 1.25 goals-against average, .960 save percentage and one shutout in four appearances to lift the Senators (14-7-1, 29 points) into second place in the Atlantic Division. He made 36 saves in a 4-3 victory over the League-leading Montreal Canadiens Nov. 22. Anderson then allowed one goal in each of his next two starts, recording 19 saves in a 3-1 triumph over the Boston Bruins Nov. 24 and 32 saves in a 2-1 win over the Carolina Hurricanes Nov. 26. He closed the week by earning his 36th career shutout – via 33 saves – in a 2-0 victory over the New York Rangers Nov. 27. The 35-year-old Park Ridge, Ill., native shares second place in the NHL with 12 wins and three shutouts in 17 outings this season (12-4-1) to go along with a 2.03 goals-against average and .936 save percentage.
SECOND STAR – MICHAEL CAMMALLERI, LW, NEW JERSEY DEVILS
Cammalleri led the NHL with four goals and eight points to power the Devils (10-6-5, 25 points) to a 1-0-2 record in his three appearances. Playing in his first game since Nov. 8, Cammalleri (1-3—4) registered his sixth career four-point performance – and first since Feb. 13, 2013 – in a 5-4 shootout victory against the Toronto Maple Leafs Nov. 23.
