Apr 13, 2026 | 10:54 AM

NEW YORK — Los Angeles Kings goaltender Anton Forsberg, Ottawa Senators goaltender Linus Ullmark and Detroit Red Wings centre Dylan Larkin have been named the NHL’s three stars of the week.

Forsberg went 3-0-0 with 0.97 goals-against average, .964 save percentage and one shutout to backstop the Kings to a perfect week as they vie for one of the two remaining playoff spots in the Western Conference.

He capped the week with a 27-save performance for his 11th career shutout in a 1-0 win over the Edmonton Oilers on Saturday.

Ullmark also went 3-0-0, compiling a 1.00 goals-against average, .961 save percentage and one shutout to help the Senators clinch their second straight playoff berth.

He made 23 saves in a 3-0 victory against the New York Islanders on Saturday, setting the Senators up for clinching a playoff spot when New Jersey beat Detroit later that day.
