Giordano, Anderson, Tarasenko Named 3 Stars of the Week
Congrats to Giordano!
Quote:
|
Giordano led the NHL with seven points (2-5-7) to power the Flames (9-5-2, 20 points) to two wins in three contests. He opened the week with 1-1-2, including an assist on Sean Monahan's overtime winner, in a 4-3 triumph over the Washington Capitals Nov. 4. Giordano followed that up with a pair of assists in a 5-2 loss to the Tampa Bay Lightning Nov. 6. He then capped the week with 1-2-3, matching a career high for points in one game, in a 6-4 win over the Florida Panthers Nov. 8. The 31-year-old Toronto, Ont., native currently has 4-7-11 during a six-game point streak, including multi-point performances in each of his last four outings (one game shy of the club record for a defenseman). Giordano also leads all blueliners with 5-13-18 in 16 games this season; he is just the fifth defenseman since 2005-06 to record at least 18 points through his team's first 16 games of the season.

Gio is 6th overall in points in the entire NHL.
The only other defenceman in the top 40?
TJ Brodie.

No, Mikael Backlund was the 3rd star in Feb 2014.

@DarrenWHaynes: Recent history of #Flames players named one of the NHL's 'Three Stars of the Week'. It hasn't happened much lately.

I know Kipper definitely made that list many times during his time here. I just can't prove it.

surprised no Kipper in there, he had a few rough seasons, but playing 70+ games a year, and he was quite good in 09-10 and 11-12

Congrats Gio! I'm am sure it won't be the last time this year. I remember Backlund getting it last year, I think he had a 4 game goal streak and a short handed goal or something like that. Was playing great.
Maybe JG can get on that list this season, would be awesome.

Something has to be wrong with that list, Iginla in October?

I still have no idea why Team Canada thought Dan Hamhuis and Marc Edouard Vlasic were better than Gio...
