Skills competition is all I care about. But only specific events truly interest me.

- Hardest Shot
- Fastest Skater
- Accuracy Shooting

They should go back to having the winners of the individual team skills competitions compete in the all star weekend skills competition.

As for the all star game, I have no idea how to fix that. It seems like they've tried everything. Best idea I have is first of all have the Olympics and world cup every other year. Then for the all star game every other year, have them play a non-contact/no hitting game against a team from the KHL.

One NHL team - the best team that could possibly be assembled. No more every franchise gets a representative.

Ovechkin McDavid Draisaitl
Panarin Mckinnon Kane
Crosby Barkov Pasternak
Petterson/Kucherov Eichel Matthews

where to put Huberdeau, Malkin, Marchand, Stamkos, Stone ???

Hedman Carlsson
Josi Jones
Hamilton Pietrangelo
Makar

Vasilevsky
Kuemper
Jarry

Or, have them play against an all rookie team...

I love the All-Star weekend. Hopefully the Mountain Man can retain his title for the hardest shot.

 

[Deebs]

It's time to end the all star weekend. None of the players want to be there, the games are played half-arsed and the skills competition is sloppy.

 

[ahmedou]

It's over for me.

 

[habergeon]

Call me crazy, but I actually enjoy the fastest skater competition.

And of course the hardest shot, I think Weber has it this year.

This guy skating around with a microphone is painful to watch.

Top 5 favourite Nelly song right here.

 

[peate]

Keep the Flames and Oilers far apart. That applies not only in hockey.

Are the women up next?

 

[peate]

Nice anthem.

 

[Saxon]

Nice anthem.

Agreed!

Jack eichel makes 10m a year and probably leaves the bar empty handed more times than not.

What a strange looking fellow

 

[Boardish]

I remember when people used to say that Barzal was slow.

I remember that too....

 

[Le Tricolore]

Remember when they gave Dylan Larkin (and others that year) a 50 foot head start before the red line?

 

[NobleSix]

How is Holtby considered an "All Star" this season? Hasn't he been brutal?

Not like it even matters

 

[CristianoRonaldo]

Weber is drunk.

 

[Whitesnake]

So...never Weber on a shootout. lol

 

[CristianoRonaldo]

Brady K, looks more like Eichel's brother than his real brother.

 

[Whitesnake]

Ah so...maybe he finally should...lol
