The annual NHL All-Star Game is always very entertaining, if not necessarily for the right reasons. This year, the Pittsburgh Penguins were represented by center Evgeni Malkin and defenseman Kris Letang. Both were key figures in the Metropolitan Division’s lineup, instrumental in both the Skills Competition win and the All-Star Game loss.
In case you didn’t watch, here’s the new format for the festivities: in the Skills Competition, the Eastern Conference players face off against the Western ones in a series of events. The winning side’s captains then choose whether they want to play in the first or second game the following day.
