314th consecutive game to set a franchise record,

New York, NY (SportsNetwork.com) - San Jose Sharks rookie forward Tomas Hertl was named the NHLs First Star for the second full week of the 2013-14 season. Hertl, a 19-year-old native of the Czech Republic, set the league on its ear last week, totaling an NHL-best five goals in only three games for the unbeaten Bay Area club. He picked up four of those in a 9-2 victory over the Rangers on Oct. 8, including a between-the-legs, breakaway shot for his final tally of the contest which drew widespread reaction. The 17th-overall pick in the 2012 draft leads all first-year players with seven goals. Second Star honors went to a pair of Avalanche goaltenders in a rare move. Semyon Varlamov and Jean-Sebastien Giguere have combined to allow only four goals in Colorados first five games of the season. Varlamov went 2-0 with a 1.00 goals-against average and .971 save percentage, while Giguere stopped 39 shots in his lone start, a 2-0 win in Boston last Thursday. Penguins captain Sidney Crosby took home the Third Star. Crosby led the league with seven points (3G, 4A) in three games as Pittsburgh won two of its three matchups. He also recorded his eighth career hat trick in a 5-4 win over the Bolts on Saturday.

Evgeni Malkin and Brandon Sutter also scored for the Penguins, who bounced back from a 3-0 shutout at the hands of Vancouver on Thursday and won for the third time in their last four games. It was important to have a (good) rebound game, said Penguins coach Mike Johnston. We feel we didnt play our best (on Thursday). Marc-Andre Fleury made 27 saves, including two in the closing moments, in the victory. Milan Michalek and Mika Zibanejad scored second-period goals for Ottawa, which has lost five in a row and seven of its last eight. Craig Anderson stopped 30 shots in defeat, but had little chance on Ehrhoffs winner. The Penguins worked for the puck deep and Sidney Crosby emerged with it along the left boards. He backhanded a cross-ice pass to an unchecked Ehrhoff, who moved into the right circle alone and blasted a shot from the dot into the upper right corner of the net for his second goal of the season. Fleury kept the Penguins in front with 1:19 to play when he stopped a deflected shot and stuck out the glove to deny Bobby Ryans rebound from the doorstep. Malkin gave the Penguins a 1-0 lead just 4:17 into the game, shortly after he exited the penalty box after serving a roughing minor. He picked up the puck at center ice, raced into the Ottawa zone on a breakaway and made neat move from the backhand to the forehand as he approached the crease and slipped a shot just inside the left post. Anderson remained on the ice for a time after Malkin crashed into him, but stayed in the game and turned aside the other 12 shots he faced in the first period to keep the Senators down only one.dddddddddddd Ottawa then scored twice in the first half of the second period to move in front. Michalek tipped an Erik Karlsson point shot past Fleury just 73 seconds into the stanza on a power play and Zibanejad scored from the slot off a nice feed from Ryan at the 8:44 mark. The Penguins picked up a late power play and tied it just 1:57 before the end of the second when Sutter deflected Olli Maattas shot from the left boards. We competed and worked hard and thats what you have to do, said Crosby. Getting that late goal in the second period was big and allowed us to come back in the third.
