By recording seven goals and 11 assists in 10 games, red-hot Chicago Blackhawks captain Jonathan Toews was named the NHL's first star of the month for February, the league announced Wednesday.
Toews has skyrocketed his season total to 46 points as the Blackhawks pursue the Minnesota Wild for the Central Division crown.
Joining Toews for last month's honors is Nashville Predators winger Filip Forsberg, who led the NHL with 11 goals and added six assists in 13 games. Particularly of late, Forsberg has been on a special kind of tear that featured consecutive hat tricks and three game-winning goals.
Washington Capitals netminder Braden Holtby took home third star honors, posting an 8-0-1 record with a 1.88 GAA and save percentage of .928.
