Tim Thomas has been named the NHL's first star for November after backstopping the Boston Bruins to a sensational month. He earned a perfect 9-0-0 record while producing three shutouts and a remarkable .941 save percentage. Thomas has picked up where he left off a year ago, after a sluggish start to the season, to rejoin the league's elite netminders. The reigning Vezina and Conn Smythe Trophy winner should be among the top goalies for the balance of the 2011-12 campaign.
