Pekka Rinne’s stick was, in my humble opinion, unfairly discriminated against for the NHL’s 3 stars of the week ending Jan 23rd.  This video:  may just be the play of the year and the stick was ignored.  NHL announced: 1.  Tim Thomas, 2.  Steven Stamkos, 3. Chunk Broudour.  All good weeks.  But a stick to make a game winning save for a team that’s fighting for a playoff spot, stunning.

Calls to the stick were not returned.
