Lee Stempniak named the NHL’s second star of the week
The Phoenix Coyotes Lee Stempniak’s recent scoring tear didn’t go unnoticed as he was just named the NHL’s second star of the week. In three wins last week, Stempniak scored five goals. Since Stempniak was acquired by the Coyotes from the Toronto Maple Leafs at the trade deadline, he has six goals in five games with the Coyotes.
Now you all are probably wondering why he didn’t get the first star.
The Vancouver Canucks Mikael Samuelsson was named the NHL’s #1 star for his ten point performance (six goals and four assists) in four games. Can’t beat that.
Nashville Predators goaltender Pekka Rinne was named the NHL’s #3 star for the week.









We started this site to meet the growing demand by Coyotes fans in their need for Coyotes News. We do things a bit differently here. We don\'t provide the canned articles you would find on most other sites. We provide analysis, news, and information with a bit of attitude. EDITORIAL MISSION: We let the other guy handle the box scores and stuff like that. We fill in the gaps in coverage....and trust me there are lots of gaps in local coverage that need to be filled.
