The NHL has begun revealing names of players that have been named to the All-Star Game, taking place February 1-3 in Toronto.
A grand total of 48 players will participate in NHL All-Star Weekend, with the first 32 names revealed today — one for every team. An additional 12 players will be named via a fan vote at a later date.
Players will be divided into four teams via a draft, for the three-on-three tournament. The Skills Competition will look drastically different too.
Eastern Conference NHL All-Stars
The Eastern Conference list is highlighted by Sidney Crosby, who is still scoring at better than a point per game pace at age 36. His longtime rival Alex Ovechkin wasn’t named an All-Star today, despite leading the Washington Capitals in points (24) — Tom Wilson was named instead.
The top Eastern Conference scorers not named today include William Nylander and Artemi Panarin, who each have 51 points. Auston Matthews (45 points) got the Toronto Maple Leafs nod over Nylander, while star goalie Igor Shesterkin was choice from the New York Rangers instead of Panarin.
