In addition to the Feb. 1 player draft, NHL All-Star Thursday will see the NHL Alumni Association honor the 1967 Toronto Maple Leafs, Toronto’s last Stanley Cup (SN) team, by naming the Man of the Year. We are planning to make an announcement. There will also be 3-on-3 games in the Women’s Professional Hockey League (SN, ESPN+).
NHL All-Star Skills presented by DraftKings Sportsbook will take place on February 2 (7 p.m. ET, ESPN, ESPN+, SN, TVAS).
The NHL has reimagined the skills competition to showcase the best players, build drama throughout the night and crown an individual overall champion for the first time.
Each of the 12 All-Stars will compete in multiple events and earn points based on their finish in each event.
Each will compete in four of the first six events: Fastenal NHL Fastest Skater, Rogers NHL Hardest Shot, Upper Deck NHL Stick Handling, NHL One Timer, NHL Passing Challenge, and Cheetos NHL Accuracy Shooting. 1st place gets 5 points, 2nd place gets 4 points, and so on.
The top eight players with points will advance to the seventh event, the Honda NHL Shootout.
The top six points will advance to the final event, the Pepsi NHL Obstacle Course. The event includes all skills and doubles the points for him. 1st place will receive 10 points and 2nd place will receive 8 points.
Following the skills contest on February 2nd, the 2024 NHL All-Star Game will be held on February 3rd and will be available on ABC, ESPN+, SN, CBC and TVAS.
