The roster formation takes a two-stage approach: the league initially selects 32 players (one for each team), followed by fan voting to determine the remaining 12 players. On Feb. 1, four players will be chosen as captains, setting the stage for an exciting draft.
NHL All-Star for the ninth time in Toronto
