Detroit Red Wings

NHL.com has released its choices for the three stars of the week, and you’ll never guess who amongst the Detroit Red Wings made the cut.

 

Mike Green had an outstanding performance last Monday, netting a hat trick against the Ottawa Senators during the team’s final regular season home opener at the Joe Louis Arena ahead of the “Farewell Season at the Joe.”

 

His hat trick was the first by a Red Wings defenseman since Nicklas Lidstrom pulled off the feat on December 15 of 2010.

 

Thus, it comes as no surprise then that the 31-year-old received the third star of the week, thanks also to his two assists and five points over three games.

 

Congratulations, Mike!
