The Hockey News player of the week for Dec. 10 - Dec. 16 is Calgary Flames left-winger Kristian Huselius.
The 29-year-old Swede had two five-point games over the past week, registering 11 points in three games. With a hat trick in a win over Tampa Bay and four assists against St. Louis, Huselius has solidified his place on the top line and is a big part of the Flames’ current winning streak.
A second round pick (47th overall) of the Panthers back in 1997, Huselius was traded to Calgary in exchange for Steve Montador and Dustin Johner in December of 2005.
Huselius has 33 points in 34 games and is on pace to equal his career high of 34 goals.

Who should start in goal for Russia at the Olympics?
“I was coming in to take the boards away and had some good jump. He bobbled the puck at the last second and I don’t think he saw me coming at all. It was a shoulder right in his chest. He’s eight feet tall, so it’s not like you could hit him in the head.”
- Ottawa's Chris Neil about a hit he threw on Tampa's Victor Hedman Thursday night, causing Hedman to leave the game.
