Boston goalie Thomas earns weekly honor

NEW YORK, Jan. 24 (UPI) -- Boston Bruins goalie Tim Thomas earned the No. 1 star honor Monday in the NHL's weekly awards.

The 36-year-old all-star goalie went 3-0-0 with a 1.33 goals-against average in the week ended Sunday.

The No. 2 star went to Tampa Bay forward Steven Stamkos and the No. 3 star was awarded to another goalie, New Jersey's 38-year-old Martin Brodeur.

Stamkos, who leads the league in goals and total points, scored five times in four Tampa wins.

Brodeur's efforts for the week virtually matched Thomas -- 3-0-0 with a 1.34 goals-against and .949 save percentage.
