The 2024 edition of the National Hockey League All-Star Game is on the horizon, slated to take place on February 3 at Toronto's Scotiabank Arena, the revered home of the Toronto Maple Leafs. Notably, this year marks a unique fusion of the four-team, three-on-three format implemented since 2016 with the "fantasy draft" format utilized from 2011 to 2015. The NHL All-Star Thursday, transpiring on February 1, witnessed the exciting fantasy draft, setting the stage for the subsequent NHL All-Star Skills Competition on February 2.
Auston Matthews, a standout player for the Maple Leafs, assumes the role of team captain for one squad, while Connor McDavid, hailing from the Edmonton Oilers, captains the second team. Nathan MacKinnon, representing the Colorado Avalanche, leads the charge for the third team. The fourth team, in a unique twist, features brothers Jack Hughes of the New Jersey Devils and Quinn Hughes of the Vancouver Canucks.
