Seemed more fun last year with John Scott.

The weekend is a gimmick anyway, don't know why they removed the style breakaway event.

Those were impressive shots by Burns and Smith.

Sid the kid is the man, even in a skills event.

No one cares
I actually felt embarrassed for the NHL especially when compared to the NBA all star festivities, the players have no personality and the concepts are dead, scrap it.

lol of course TSN making a big deal of the lil kid scoring on price lol, christ
What kind of big deal? You could see Price let the kid score. Any goalie would allow a kid to score in that situation it means the world to the little guy and I bet Kessler thanked Price for it.

Oh they did, did you miss the super exciting "stand at the blue, red, blue, and goal line and mostly miss the net" challenge? I would have loved to be in the meeting where that one was suggested.

So clueless and boring. NHL really can't figure these competitions out.

The more they change it the more they screw it up, getting painful to watch and ever more painful to listen to, looking more like an intermission fan challenge to hit open nets - it was actually not much of a selling feature when Mike Smith has the best shot, I was surprised how bad many of the others were at picking corners

Go back to the Eastern/Western Conference and original skills comp - the shootout elimination is probably the best version they've done to date

Weber is the last guy I expected to score in the shootout.

This All Star stuff id getting stale though.
