The 2024 National Hockey League All-Star Game was held on February 3 at Scotiabank Arena in Toronto, Ontario, the home of the Toronto Maple Leafs. It was the first time that the four-team, three-on-three format used since 2016 was combined with the "fantasy draft" format used from 2011 to 2015. The fantasy draft took place on February 1, and was followed by the NHL All-Star Skills Competition on February 2.[1] This was the 68th edition of the game.

Following this All-Star game, the NHL will instead hold a new 4 Nations Face-Off tournament in 2025, with the next All-Star Game taking place in 2026.[3]
History
editThe NHL awarded Toronto as the host city of the game on February 4, 2023. This was the first time since 2012 in Ottawa that a Canadian city was selected to host the game. This was Toronto's ninth time hosting the NHL All-Star Game, including the first game in 1947. This was the second time that Scotiabank Arena (then known as Air Canada Centre) hosted the game, the first time being in 2000.[4]
Rosters
editOn November 27, 2023, the NHL announced that the fantasy player draft, used from 2011 to 2015, would make its return to the All-Star Game, while keeping the three-on-three format used since 2016. Like in the 2023 All-Star Game, the player selection process was performed in two stages, with the league's initially selecting 32 players, one for each team, and then the remaining 12 players were decided by fan vote. The league then selected four players to be captains for each of the four teams, and the draft of the players took place on February 1, 2024.[1]
On January 14, the head coaches were announced, chosen from the team in each division with the highest points percentage through January 13: Jim Montgomery of the Boston Bruins (Atlantic), Peter Laviolette of the New York Rangers (Metropolitan), Rick Bowness of the Winnipeg Jets (Central), and Rick Tocchet of the Vancouver Canucks (Pacific).[5]
On January 22, Kyle Connor and Vincent Trocheck were added as replacements for Connor Bedard and Jack Eichel who were unable to play due to injury.[6] On January 30, Jesper Bratt was added to replace the injured Jack Hughes.[7][8]
NHL's selections
editThe league announced its 32 selections on January 4:[9]
Injured; did not play.- † Added as injury replacement.
- ^ Lindholm was originally selected as a member of the Calgary Flames, before being traded to the Vancouver Canucks on January 31, 2024.[10]
Fan vote
editThe fan vote ran from January 4 to January 11 to determine the final 12 players (8 skaters and 4 goalies).[9] The results were announced on January 13.[11]

The draft of the NHL players took place on February 1, 2024.[9] On January 4, the league announced that two of the captains would be Connor McDavid of the Edmonton Oilers and Auston Matthews of the Toronto Maple Leafs.[12] The league then announced on January 20 that Nathan MacKinnon of the Colorado Avalanche would captain the third team, and brothers Jack Hughes of the New Jersey Devils and Quinn Hughes of the Vancouver Canucks would co-captain the fourth team. For alternate captains, Morgan Rielly joined Toronto teammate Matthews, Leon Draisaitl joined Edmonton teammate McDavid, and Cale Makar joined Colorado teammate MacKinnon.[2] Although Jack Hughes was unable to play due to injury, he still participated in helping his brother Quinn in the players draft,[7] and Elias Pettersson was named alternate captain of the fourth team in his place.[8] Each team was also joined by a celebrity co-captain to help select their roster: singer Justin Bieber on Team Matthews, actor and comedian Will Arnett on Team McDavid, singer Tate McRae on Team MacKinnon, and singer Michael Buble on Team Hughes.[2]
Hughes won the first pick in the draft, Matthews received the second pick, MacKinnon was awarded the third pick, and McDavid got the fourth pick. The teams selected in reverse order during even-numbered rounds. For the final round, Hockey Hall of Famer Dave Keon conducted a random draw of envelopes with the four remaining unselected players.[13]

Skills Competition
editThe NHL All-Star Skills Competition, was held on February 2, having been revamped. Instead of having individual winners for each skill event, twelve specific players competed in multiple events to determine an overall winner. Each player first competed in four of the following six events: Fastest Skater, Hardest Shot, Stick Handling, One Timers, Passing Challenge, and Accuracy Shooting, with points given out based on the players' results. The top eight advanced to the One-on-One shootout. From there, the top six advanced to the final event, the Obstacle Course, with the winner of the competition winning a trophy and $1 million.[15] Different from a regular game scenario, the pucks used in the Skills Competition were not frozen.
The players who participated in the Skills Competition were determined by a fan vote held concurrently with the main All-Star fan vote that ran from January 4 to January 11.[16] Due to Jack Hughes' injury, Mathew Barzal served as his replacement.[7]
