Oilers' Connor McDavid played key role in 2024 NHL All-Star Skills competition changes
McDavid got a chance to talk with the league about the skills competition
By Chris Bengel • 2 min readThe NHL All-Star Skills competition is set to undergo a major facelift in 2024 thanks to the input of Edmonton Oilers star Connor McDavid. The 2024 All-Star Game Skills competition is slated to take place on Friday, Feb. 2 at Scotiabank Arena in Toronto.
McDavid spoke with NHL senior vice president and chief content officer Steve Mayer about what he'd want the skills competition to be. According to ESPN's Greg Wyshynski, the Oilers forward revealed what players were looking for in the events and helped the league to create a more hockey-based competition.
The new format will showcase just 12 NHL players taking on one another in eight different events. Those players will earn points for where they finish in each event and the player that earns the most points throughout the night will win $1 million.
The first eight players are slated to be chosen by the NHL's hockey operation department and NHLPA. Fans will vote for the final four skaters involved in the skills competition. Only players who have been selected for the NHL All-Star Game will be eligible to participate in the skills competition.
