No.

Annoying stoppage of play.

Wish they'd just get rid of this shit altogether.

I'll watch the skills contest.

I only watch the games when John Scott plays.

The woman's 3 v 3, if I remember, is all I am interested in.

Is that Beiber v. Binnington thing happening this weekend? I am def in for that.

No i won't watch that 3 on 3 snoozefest. I struggle to get through the 5 minute version without falling asleep.

On my list of priorities and interests, watching meaningless hockey games and events is pretty damn low.

So no, I will not be watching.

Time is finite, use it wisely.

I'll record the skills comp and fast forward the bits that bore me.

Won't be watching anything else.

I also think people complain too much about the NHL ALL-Star game, every sports' all-star game sucks to the same degree or more.

MLB home-run derby is ok I guess, but haven't even watched that in a decade.

I usually catch most or all of the skills competition...but rarely tune in for the actual game anymore. Happened to catch about 5 minutes of the game this year because it happened to be on the background, but that was more than enough for me.

This is first time in forever I didn't catch one second of anything this weekend.

I feel like a bad fan. :(

p.s. I wanted to watch the woman's 3v3 but ended up at a high school BB game instead.

Came here to say no but I admit that I did watch about 2 minutes of one of the games last night and I'm way past the age of 12.

I watched the first 5 minutes of the first game and turned it off. Embarrassing levels of effort, ive seen 80 year olds move faster.

This event should be cancelled or replaced. I am not sure when it happened but players dont try at all anymore. I think it happened sometime in the 2000's. I am not expecting hitting or forchecking but actually skating to open ice or loose pucks isnt going to cause an injury.

stuck with no and did not watch either. went fishing all day Saturday and did flooring in the house all day Sunday. much more enjoyable and productive than what the All-star weekend offers lol.

I wonder if doing an all star game similar to the nfl would work better. They do theirs at the end of the year and the 2 final teams do not participate. Or at least that's how I understand it.

But I'd rather they just cancel it tbh.
