NEW YORK, N.Y. – Colorado Avalanche centre Matt Duchene, New York Rangers right-wing Mats Zuccarello and Toronto Maple Leafs goaltender James Reimer are the NHL’s three stars of the week.

Duchene led the NHL with four goals and eight points to help the Avalanche begin their season-long, seven-game road trip with three straight wins. He had a pair of three-point games — two goals and an assist in a 4-0 win over Philadelphia on Tuesday and a goal and two assists in a 6-1 triumph over Montreal on Friday.

Zuccarello had two goals and five assists in four games to help the league-leading Rangers extend their winning streak to nine games.

Reimer went 3-0-0 with a 1.62 goals-against average and .952 save percentage to backstop the Maple Leafs to three wins in four games.
