Winnipeg Jets goaltender Connor Hellebuyck, Colorado Avalanche centre Nathan MacKinnon and Buffalo Sabres goaltender Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen have been named the NHL's three stars of the week.

The Jets (15-1-0) became the fastest in NHL history to 15 wins after a 6-3 victory against the New York Rangers. They were the first to win 14 of their first 15 games in a season. They won their first eight and currently have a seven-game winning streak.

With a 5-3 victory over the New York Rangers on Tuesday night at Madison Square Garden, the Winnipeg Jets now have the NHL's most points at 30, the most goals at 73, and became the first franchise in NHL history to win 15 of its first 16 contests.
