[STREAM>>] 2024 NHL All-Star Game weekend: Live stream, TV, draft, skills competition, rosters

The Toronto Maple Leafs are hosting the NHL All-Star Game for the first time since 2000, and the look will be more traditional.

Friday's All-Star skills competition is a prime example. The last two skills competitions in Florida and Vegas gave us pitch and puck golf, a dunk tank, a game of 21 featuring players shooting pucks at oversized cards and an event at the Fountains of Bellagio.

This year will go back to the basics: shooting, skating, passing, breakaways and stickhandling. The 12-player competition has a winner-take-all $1 million prize.

Saturday's All-Star Game will remain a four-team, 3-on-3 tournament, as it has been since 2016. But the NHL is going back to having captains choose their teams in a draft, last done in 2015. That will be held Thursday.
