So much better than past skills competitions. A far better look at what they can do.

No silly costumes, props, surfboards or golf courses. Just pure hockey type event. New format is way better. Just gotta work out some of the kinks

Don't worry, McPrincess will choke in the playoffs, as usual.

Best skills comp they've done in quite a few years, from the electronic targets that didn't read shots to the gimmicky events I'm glad they seem to have brought it back to regular events and the one million dollar prize is a nice incentive. Never been a Kuch fan but almost felt bad for him, he's had a few tough events over the years.

McDavid is of course incredible as always, but I liked Makar the most, he made a good impression and I was rooting for him that night.

I mean, was it even a question that this dude is the best

All of these players are incredibly gifted; three or more standard deviations above the mean hockey skill for a large young adult male. And despite all of that elite talent, it’s a bit mind-blowing to see just how much more skillful McDavid is, above his peers.

Overall good choices on the types of Skills Events. I'd like to see more variety in players throughout events though. And add 2 Events. Breakaway Challenge. Tone it down on theatrics and it could be great. And finally, BRING BACK THE GOALIE RACE! 8 Events where skaters can earn points. 8 Skaters participate in each event. Skaters are allowed to participate in Max 4 Events so they have to choose wisely on which ones. Top 6 in Points from the 8 events get the Obstacle Course Event. 1 of those events the Goalies can earn money - One on One and an extra Goalie Event in the GOALIE RACE Tournament Bracket where winner gets money. Skater Events - Fastest Skater / One Timers / Passing Challenge / Hardest Shot / Stick Handling / Accuracy Shooting / One-On-One / Breakaway Challenge // Obstacle Course Final Goalie Events - One-On-One / GOALIE RACE Biznasty and PK Subban Host / 4 Teams each with Captain and Alternate Captain and Celebrity Coach / Player Draft in smaller studio setting Max 4 Skaters and 1 Goalie per NHL Team Friday - Player Draft / PWHL Showcase Game Saturday - Skills Competition Sunday - Legends Game / All Star Games

I see you're still liking your own comments again. In the great words of Homer Simpson... "You are so smart...S-M-R-T!!!"

Nobody skates better than McDavid. Nobody shoots better than Matthews. Nobody is more dynamic than MacKinnon. Nobody is more beautiful than Nylander.

Connor McJesus!!

Dude just rolled over the obstacles 😂

Here's an idea - next year, have a lottery to partner with one of the all-stars- you get a trip to see the game , and if your all-star wins, you get half the money - you can choose someone from your favorite team, or just a player you like, or that you think will win. So there is some strategy to it as well.

Did Makar almost steal that $1M from McDavid by only a couple secs? Was also kinda surprised how bad McDavid was in the goalie comp too. Georgiev was on it. Funny how both players were from the Avs too ha.
