Erik Karlsson has been named the NHL's first star of the week. That's not a surprise. Karlsson has been great all season, but he's taken his game to another level recently. He's riding a seven-game point streak and he had four goals and 12 points in four contests last week. As a blueliner, Karlsson is currently tied for sixth in the NHL in points and he's just two assists behind Henrik Sedin for the NHL lead in that category.
