The NHL All-Star Game is coming up this weekend, and Kyle Palmieri was chosen to represent the New Jersey Devils after Taylor Hall was forced to step away with an injury. That means we get to see Palmieri not only play in Sunday’s game representing the Metropolitan Division, but we get to see him compete in the All-Star Skills Competition.
The NHL hasn’t announced who will compete in what event, but we’d have to imagine Palmieri will compete in the shooting skills competition. The reason he made it to the All-Star Game this season was his 22 goals, well on his way to a career high.
